Elderly

Dog and music therapy for seniors with Alzheimer's

"There's only one flaw. And that's that you're leaving so soon." This is how the client reacted after the end of the program of the music therapy duo Waves of Being, which always makes the clients sing and recharges them with positive energy for the rest of the day. The same energy is brought to us by the french bulldogs Kvido and Elvira, who always fill the Centre's premises with their joyful and optimistic nature.

Please help us continue these two external activities that are very beneficial to our clients with Alzheimer's and other types of dementia, helping them to maintain their joy even with a difficult diagnosis.

Canis therapy
Many of our clients have had at least one animal companion during their lifetime and it has been an important part of their lives. Due to their progressive illness and related limited abilities, they are no longer able to care for their pet themselves, but their love for animals and the need for contact with them still remains. And so we are very happy that we can give them at least one visit from their furry companions every week.
Because people with dementia are positively affected by the presence of calm and friendly animals that they can pet, hold, or just observe performing fun commands. Most clients focus all their attention on the presence of the dogs during canister therapy, finding peace and joy from which they draw their energy calmly for the rest of the day.



Music therapy
Music is a really powerful sorceress that brings peace and relaxation to the soul, which is why music often resounds in our spaces. One of the most popular musical activations is the monthly programme of the music therapy duo Vlny bytí. Jiří Hampl and Ivana Guzková use voice, guitar, hang drums, resonance bowls and other tools to develop clients' self-expression through musical expression, which promotes calming and relaxation and enhances the musical experience. The joy and peace in clients' eyes after this program is priceless.



Thank you very much for supporting the sincere joy that these activations bring to our clients.
