Animal Assisted Therapy Programme

Animal Assisted Therapy is an evidence-based treatment approach at TTK Hospital that uses interaction with trained animals to support emotional healing and recovery. It offers a unique and comforting way to reduce stress and promote well-being during early stages of recovery.

Through guided sessions, patients engage with animals in a safe and supportive environment. These interactions help reduce anxiety, improve mood, and create a sense of companionship. The presence of animals often encourages openness, emotional expression, and a feeling of calm, making it easier for individuals to cope with challenges during recovery.

Animal assisted therapy helps individuals build trust, develop empathy, and experience unconditional acceptance. This can be especially beneficial in early recovery, where emotional stability and connection play a key role in healing.
