Our Therapy Explained
What is Dolphin Assisted Therapy Exactly?
CDTC offers an individualized two-week therapy program where personal interaction with dolphins sits at the core of the treatment. The patient is given the opportunity to interact with these highly trained dolphins while integrating customized therapy programs with specialists that are all leaders in their field. The program is designed for the treatment of patients, from 3 years and older, with wide range of special needs including Autism, ADHD and Cerebral Palsy, as well as people with physical and psychological conditions like Cancer, Depression and PTSD.
The dolphin therapy program is intended to work as a supplemental program alongside the patient’s traditional therapy received regularly at home. We recognize the crucial role that their families play in the process of rehabilitation. All become closely involved in the education and activities of the program and can observe their loved one's transformation right before their eyes. The program is provided in four languages: English, Dutch, German and Spanish.

About us
Company portrait
Our concept facilitates a difference in people’s lives. Special-needs children and adults improve their physical, verbal and social skills and gain a heightened level of self-confidence. People suffering from trauma recover, and those experiencing a burnout relax and regroup. This is not a miracle, but the result of a tailor-made treatment program provided by a professional and multidisciplinary team of therapists and specially selected dolphins in a natural environment.
