According to the statistical data, there is being observed a definite increase in percentage of children affected by posture defects, particularly scolioses. The aquatic environment facilitates treatment of scolioses, since it provides relief conditions used in order to perform prophylactic, corrective and therapeutic tasks. Hydrokinetic therapy is one of the many rehabilitation methods. It seems, however, that corrective and therapeutic swimming is far too rarely used as an auxiliary measure for treatment of scolioses. This paper presents the concept of treatment of scolioses employing asymmetrical exercises in aquatic environment, the author of which in Poland is Iwanowski. In the study desk research of literature studies was applied along with the analysis of publications, including available study reports, articles, documents and also own video and photographic materials. The author suggests the concept of conservative treatment of scolioses through the application of asymmetrical swimming exercises in aquatic environment. Such procedure is efficient in preventing significant spinal deformations, which may protect against surgical intervention.

The objective of this article was to show the educational values of adventure tourism in the process of rehabilitation of juveniles. Theoretical considerations concerning this topic give rise to the following conclusions: 1. Thanks to qualified tourism, young people shape their character and face weaknesses. It helps to change the behavior and create pro-social attitudes. 2. Qualified tourism teaches basic life skills. All of the above-mentioned points prove that part of correctional facilities activity should be based on qualified tourism.

This article is an empirical study on the possible use of non-formal education in the broadly understood animation of leisure time. The study was conducted using a diagnostic survey method, as well as the techniques of questionnaire and observation, during the last meeting under the project “Non-Formal and Formal Partnership in Adult Education” (Grundtvig Reference Number 2013-RO1- GRU06-29569 2) in Romania, at the turn of February and March 2015. The study included 16 non-formal education trainers from Greece, Latvia, Poland and Romania. The aim of the study was to show the impact of the project on the beneficiaries and the development of their individual social competence, as well as to demonstrate the work techniques of trainers with different social groups. An animator plays an important role in the organization of leisure time of the society, hence their continuous education seems almost necessary. The improvement of individual social competence of the trainers surveyed will certainly contribute to their attempt to pass a various range of games, plays and other activities (including non-formal education) to the participants of the classes.

The purpose of this paper was to confront some selected physiological parameters that describe aerobic capacity with young swimmers’ sports achievements. For the study, some athletes with the average age of 14.67, who train swimming at the SMS Szczecin Club, were selected. A progressive test of their oxygen power was performed in order to determine their aerobic capacity, with the means of the European Ranking (LEN). Each swimmer’s sports level was presented in points [pts.]. The swimmers’ characteristics were presented as divided into three groups: (S) – short-distance specialization, (M) – medium-distance specializati on and (L) – long-distance specialization. In group (S), maximum oxygen consumption – VO2max [l/min] achieved the levels of 3.95 [l/min] (male swimmers) and 2,77 [l/min] (female swimmers); in group (M) – 4.12 [l/min] and 2.97 [l/min], respectively; and in group (L) – 4.14 [l/min] and 3.338 [l/min]. Among male swimmers, level of VO2 max [ml/kg/min] equaled 58.96 – group (S), 59.72 – group (M) a nd 62.10 – group (L); while among female swimmers it reached 48.67 (S), 49.36 (M) and 54.60 (L), res pectively. The recorded values of VO2 max [ml/kg/min] qualify the young swimmers to the group of people with a very high physical capacity. Our selection of Szczecin’s athletes to individual groups proved to be correct. The considerations presented in the paper bring one’s attention to the substantive quality of the intake and selection of swimmers. In the selection, it is necessary to take such physiologic rates as VO2 max or VO2/HR into consideration.

One of the main priorities of stroke rehabilitation is regaining patients’ independence in basic everyday activities. This paper is aimed at assessing impact of early stroke rehabilitation on hip joint mobility of the affected leg in patients after cerebrovascular accidents. The study included 30 subjects (13 men and 17 women) aged on average ±66.1, with hemiparesis, who were treated at the stroke unit and participated in a 4-week rehabilitation program. Measurements of passive and active motion ranges were conducted with a goniometer in both limbs: healthy and affected ones by stroke. There were statistically significant differences in motion ranges between healthy and affected limbs. Examination I revealed that affected limbs amounted to only 40% of physiological range, while in Examination II, the result reached 73%. The most significant motion limitations were noted in terms of bending, adduction and internal rotation, while the least significant in terms of external rotation and abduction. Exercises used during early stroke rehabilitation of hemiparesis patients considerably increased active motion ranges and maintained passive motion ranges in the hip joint of the affected limb. Patients with right-sided hemiparesis experienced much better improvement in hip joint motion of the affected limb. The 4-week period was insufficient to mobilize patients and help them regain full active mobility in the hip joint of the affected limb. These patients required further physiotherapy, until they fully regained functionality.

This article is a theoretical study on the role of leisure time animation in the process of rehabilitation of juveniles staying in correctional facilities. The work consists of three parts. The first one presents the structural and functional outline of leisure time institution. The second one deals with the offer of rehabilitation, and the third discusses the role of the pedagogy of fun in the context of rehabilitation and physical education sciences. The study emphasizes the fact that the educational function is implemented mainly in the boarding house of the correctional facility. Classes are held in accordance with a predetermined schedule that is tailored to the individual needs of the pupil. The process of rehabilitation should be assisted by fun (including physical activities). It is therefore necessary to enrich traditional games and fun activities including the newer trends, using, among others, ice-breakers, energizers and team-builders. The implementation of the aforementioned play therefore requires the continuous staff performance improvement in this field. Additionally, games and activities pose the possibility of volunteering, making pupils more sensitive to the needs of others.

The aim of this article is to make the assessment of physiotherapy use in the case of swimmers’ regeneration. A diagnostic survey was used as the method. Opinions from the author’s survey were considered and there were 30 high-class swimmers analyzed aged 15–27. The research was conducted in 2012 at the Floating Arena swimming pool in Szczecin. 100% of the surveyed swimmers benefit from regeneration after physical effort. The most common physiotherapist treatment in case of swimmers is dry classic massage – 86.7%. The water bath (63.3%), sauna bath (56.7%), whirl bath (53.3%), water jets/Scotch douche (43.3%) and hydro massages (30%) are the most common types of hydrotherapy. On the other hand, ultrasounds and cryotherapy are the least common treatments when choosing adequate types of regeneration, i.e. respectively 13.3% and 3.3%. The biggest amount of massages is performed shortly before start – 40%. Massage in 60% cases lasts 10 minutes. In 90% of the surveyed group partial massage is being applied, whereas only 3.3% of competitors take the overall massage. In case of 80% of the swimmers, massage is regarded as completely relaxing. For 77% of them it relaxes both physically and mentally. In case of 80% of the surveyed, it is regarded as the most efficient form of biological regeneration. 60% of swimmers say it is helpful to maintain readiness to start and to overcome fever (feeling of annoyance) or apathy.

More and more often specialized literature mentions the contemporarily relevant notion of the application of swimming as one of the therapeutic methods in modern medicine. The thesis reviews specialized literature and analyzes documents in order to demonstrate the significance of aquatic therapy and corrective swimming exercises as a corrective and therapeutic function in the treatment of postural deficits and scoliosis. As this article has a character of a review, its purpose is to attempt a concise synthesis of the knowledge concerning the impact of swimming as a sport on the development of the physiological spinal curvature, as well as to emphasize the significance of aquatic therapy and corrective swimming exercises in counterbalancing gravity and supporting the body weight and to demonstrate their health benefits.
