The impact of adaptive sports on the social adaptation of disabled people

Abstract

Adaptive physical education is one of the constituent parts of culture, which is intended for people who, as a result of disease, injury, anatomical or mental defect, have strong and sharp morphological disorders of body functions and organs. It aims to develop the individual's functional, and psychological abilities and, if necessary, compensatory mechanisms, which enable a person to achieve self-reliance (depend only on himself) and lead an active lifestyle. The main goal of disabled people's participation in adaptive sports is to restore lost contact with the surrounding world, to create the necessary conditions for restoring relations with society and joining it, to participate in socially useful activities, and to self-participate in the rehabilitation of one's own health.
