Farmingtherapy and Its Influence on the Client
VALENTOVÁ, Pavla
The author deals with farmingtherapy as is a special form of zootherapy which is conducted through work with farm animals. It includes not only work in direct contact with the animals but also the whole process of caretaking and breeding {--} and usually not only of one kind or breed. The work consists of a theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part, the author focuses on a relatively detailed analysis of the given type of zootherapy. One of the chapters deals with ways of practical use of this approach. The author also mentions foreign organizations focusing on farmingtherapy. Further, she includes a historical overview of this method. The aim of the practical part of the bachelor thesis was to contact a maximum number of organizations in the Czech Republic that focus on or offer farmingtherapy, and through email questionnaires asses the extent of use of this method in our country. Organizations using some kinds of farmingtherapy in their work were sent a questionnaire which was to ascertain the extent, method and level of the realization of this method. The obtained results revealed that farmingtherapy has a positive influence on the clients and that both clients and organizers were satisfied with its effects. In the Czech Republic, farmingtherapy is still a relatively new and unknown field. Therefore, it came as no surprise that the questionnaires showed large gaps in general awareness regarding this method, possibilities of further education of therapists specializing in this field as well as methods and techniques of zootherapy in general. These are only some of the reasons why the author supposes that her bachelor thesis could serve as a comprehensive source of information for practicing zootherapists as well as for the general public and become a source of inspiration for therapists working with their clients.
