Scientists: Dolphin Calls Good For Fetus
Date : 17/10/2005
Peruvian Obstetricians Offer Therapy.
LIMA, Peru -- Scientists in Peru believe that dolphin calls may benefit prenatal children by stimulating brain activity while the fetus is still developing.
Elizabeth Yalan, dean of the Obstetrician College of Peru, said the energy produced by porpoise calls can positively stimulate a baby's brain while the fetus is still inside the mother's womb.
Some believe the sounds can promote the development of babies' senses.
Instructors have trained the dolphins to swim close to pregnant women and emit their calls.
The practice is known in Spanish-speaking countries as delfinoterapia, or dolphin therapy.
Some obstetricians have begun to offer the therapy to pregnant women hoping to improve the abilities of their prenatal children.
