Modelling is an original and creative form of therapy and above all one which is accessible when the limits of cognitive care have been reached. Salt dough is a malleable, sensitive and multi-sensory mediator which is forgiving of errors. Without the use of any known technique or objective as a reference, this activity avoids any notion of failure. This workshop is an area for expression and care and the mediation is interesting for its therapeutic potential.
