Aromatherapy as a part of relaxation techniques.
JÍROVÁ, Jana
My paper deals with using of aromatherapy as a part of relaxation techniques. In theoretical part I dealt with definition of relaxation and its sense. The most part I engaged in aromatherapy itself. I aimed on meaning of word aromatherapy, its history and its use in our time. I also pursued herbs and etheric oils, which unconditionaly belongs to aromatherapy. The practical part includes evaluation of enquiry aplicated on students of Health education which is aimed to trace theier opinion on alternative prevention/treatment and on adding the aromatherapy to the curriculum of the Regeneration subject which is teached on Health education. Research technique was a questionnaire refilled with a dialog. Results of the enquiry shows, that preferences of alternative prevention/treatment raises up at the expense of pharmaceutics. Students would like to spread out theier knowledge about this relaxation technique, which they could use not only for themselves, but in theier future work.

Application of snoezelen as multisensory stimulation in children with heavy combined handicap
RICHTROVÁ, Lucie
Snoezelen is a therapeutic method based on complex involvement of senses. The target group is particularly formed by individuals with heavy combined handicap, within the whole age spectre from newborns to seniors. Snoezelen is provided in a specifically arranged room offering the individual pleasant environment and stimulating sensual impulses. A therapist has a function of a guide here; the individual him/herself defines how to spend the free time in the snoezelen. The aim of the thesis was to find the possibilities of snoezelen application in children with heavy combined handicap. The particular goal was to develop individual plans for exploitation of snoezelen focused on development of concentration of attention and communication abilities. The theoretical part thus includes specification of general conditions and principles of snoezelen application as a therapeutic method apart from definitions of the basic terms, detailed characteristics of snoezelen and a list of supportive methods. This knowledge was then applied to the theoretical part of the thesis. Case reports were used for verification of the theoretical outputs with regar to the target group characteristic and the individual specifics of therapeutic work. Combination of involved observation and document analysis was used for data collection. Three children with heavy combined handicap were chosen for the research sample. All the probands passed a three-month therapy in specific environment arranged according to snoezelen principles. The room met the conditions for development of attention concentration and communication abilities. However the children did not take use of the opportunity during two month of therapy. Only relaxation effect of snoezelen was seen in all of them, a shift in interaction with the environment, where the child actively influenced the snoezelen elements was found in one case. The results showed that the short time and low frequency of therapeutic sessions were probably the reasons of non fulfilment of the set goals with regard to the disability character and degree. The thesis may serve as informational material for persons or facilities interested in utilization of snoezelen and would like to use a multi-sensory room in practice.

Interest and utilization of alternative methods during a childbirth
ZWETTLEROVÁ, Andrea
A dictionary of foreign words defines the term ``alternative{\crqq} as a choice from two or more options. This means that the word alternative means a certain possibility to choose. The term alternative methods of child birth responds to the situation which existed until recently, when individual wishes of a woman in the course of child delivery were not respected and interventions were made even in case of physiological and normally developing deliveries. In my bachelor thesis I have investigated whether expecting mothers are interested in alternative methods of child birth and whether they have opportunities to use them. In order to collect information to achieve my objective and to process the data I have used a combination of quantitative and qualitative survey, by means of questionnaires and interviews. The data were collected in the hospital in Jindřichův Hradec. The surveyed group were pregnant women planning to give birth at the maternity ward in the hospital in Jindřichův Hradec and midwifes working at the delivery room of the same hospital. The survey was based on three objectives, three hypotheses and three survey questions. The survey has shown that all the objectives have been met, the hypotheses were confirmed and answers to the survey questions were found. The acquired data may be primarily useful for students of the Faculty of Health and Social Studies and for midwifes interested in alternative methods of child birth. Last but not least, the results may be also useful for the maternity ward of the hospital in Jindřichův Hradec to find out which alternative methods of child birth are on demand among pregnant women. The today´s modern obstetrics stresses the childbirth, among other things, as a very special event in the family´s life. Memories of this beautiful experience should be kept not only by the child´s mother but also by the closest family
