Nowadays, the issues of comprehensive formation of a person capable of self-education, self-development and creative self-realization in the conditions of distance education are relevant. There is a need to solve this problem, which is due to social, cultural, and pedagogical factors. This makes it necessary to find effective means of personality formation. In this matter, great importance is attached to the modern method of forming a creative personality - art therapy. Various approaches to the definition of art therapy have been clarified. They consider various forms of art therapy when working with children, adolescents and adults in the context of distance education. The most relevant are the two main forms of work - individual and group art therapy. Art therapy develops the individual's creativity. Therefore, during art therapy, attention is focused on the inner world, experiences, and feelings. Therefore, we believe that in the context of distance education, art therapy has everything for the powerful potential of personality formation. Scientists consider this therapy as therapy by means of art, which is based on experiences, conflicts that can be expressed in the visual arts and music. Art therapy helps to get rid of conflicts and experiences. This happens in the context of distance education through the development of attention to feelings, strengthening one's own personal value and increasing artistic competence. The article describes the signs that characterize art therapy. Art-therapeutic technologies in the context of distance education, which are now actively used by psychologists, teachers and art therapists themselves, are highlighted. The advantages of distance learning are considered. The characteristic features of distance learning and features of the use of art therapy by means of distance education in the process of professional training of specialists are determined.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of active release technique and lumbar stabilization exercise on pelvic asymmetry, muscle activation and pain in chronic low back pain patients. Methods : The subjects were 37 outpatients diagnosed with chronic low back pain. The patients were randomly divided into an active release technique therapy group (ART; n=18), and lumbar stabilization exercise group (LSE; n=19). These groups performed their respective therapy for a 30-minute session occurring two times a week over six-weeks period. To assess the patients' pelvic asymmetry, their pelvic tilt, and pelvic rotation was measured using X-ray imaging. EMG was used to evaluate the muscle activity of the lumbar muscle. The visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to measure the subjects' pain. Results : Both ART group, and LSE group exhibited statistically significant differences in their subjects' VAS and muscle activation of lumbar muscle after the therapy (p<.05). In ART group exhibited statistically significant decreases in their subjects' pelvic tilt and pelvic rotation after therapy (p<.05). There was a significant difference between the ART group, and LSE group (p<.05). Conclusion : The results of this study suggest that active release technique and lumbar stabilization exercise are effective in decrease pain and increase muscle activation in chronic low back pain patient. In addition active release technique is considered to be more effective in improving pelvic tilt and pelvic rotation than lumbar stabilization exercise.

The group art therapy program was given from March 16 to May 18 of 2010, every Tuesday between 1pm through 3pm for a total of 12 sessions, with the help of two college student assistants in the region and one staff member for the city program. SPSS WIN version 12.0 is adopted to evaluate and analyze the effects of the therapy program, independent t-test for equivalence check of pretests, and frequency check for general characteristics of each group. The study results are obtained by the mean and standard deviation to grasp the changes between pretest and post-test on both groups, together with ANCOVA to evaluate effects of the therapy program with the pre-test as covariant. The results are as follows. First, self esteem of EG is significantly improved than that of CG after intervention of group art therapy. Second, self integrity is significantly higher in EG than CG after the group art therapy intervention.
