Journal Title: Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation - Year 2000, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Therapy in somatopedy is always viewed in the light of the ‘initial theoretical conception’ about the unity of the mental and the somatic (neurophysiological), both in the genesis of the physical and mental disturbances and in the system of therapeutic treatments. The body and the soul, or the physical and the mental represent an unbreakable unity. The psychotherapy is especially adequate method for work with children suffering from cerebral palsy. According to our research work connected with the studying of the utilization of various forms of psychotherapy in the rehabilitation schools for children with cerebral palsy in some places in Bulgaria, as well as our own long-range experiments, we can claim with certainty that the following methods give very good results: Music therapy, Art therapy, Puppet therapy, Cultural therapy, Biblio therapy, Rational psychotherapy of P. Dubois, Family therapy, Cognitive-behavioural therapy, Suggestion while awake, Autogen training of J. Schlitz
