BEČVÁŘOVÁ, Ivana
Hippotherapy is concerned with physiotherapy, which is carried out with the help of the horses. This therapy includes the fields of psychology, medicine, pedagogy and also sport. Hippotherapy helps not only children but also adults with various types of disability. This decades used method of rehabilitation is an excellent and the most comprehensive therapy. It combines physical therapy, psychotherapy and social therapy. This thesis deals with the educational availability, organization, health and social benefits of hippotherapy for children with mental, aural and visual disability on comparison of Central Bohemia and South Bohemia regions. The aim of this work is to determine what possibilities of the hippotherapy usage are and what activity offers and prices for hippotherapy service provision are available in the particular organizations which offer hippotherapy in South Bohemia and Central Bohemia regions. In our research we used content analysis of literature and the Internet, were selected websites and literature which are focused on issues and problems of riding and hippotherapy. Some information was also obtained by direct interview, telephone and email inquiries. Acquired information about educational availability, amount of organizations and affordability were statistically evaluated and percentage assessed in the final tables and graphs. The assumption was that a greater range of organizations and activities are in the Central region. This assumption was confirmed. Contribution to improving the awareness and orientation would be complete lists of organizations, which are engaged in hippotherapy, on the websites. The inclusion of the hippotherapy between the services supported by health insurance is also very important, so that such physiotherapy could be financially accessible to all clients and the financial grants would help to increase the number of organizations providing hippotherapy.
