A little about us:
Special Equestrians provides Therapeutic Riding and Hippotherapy to individuals with disabilities, as well as several other equine-assisted programs.
WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM OUR EQUINE-ASSISTED THERAPIES
Our experience at Special Equestrians bears out the results of long-term, global research into therapeutic riding: students experience physical, emotional, and mental rewards from therapeutic riding.
- For individuals with impaired mobility, horseback riding gently and rhythmically moves their body in a manner similar to a walking gait.
- For riders with cognitive or emotional disabilities, the unique relationship formed with a horse can help in improving interpersonal relationships, while the presence of the instructors and volunteers encourages social interaction and trust.
Equine-assisted therapies are beneficial for individuals of all ages looking to
- increase their core muscle tone so they can sit for longer periods of time
- develop the strength and flexibility in their legs to improve mobility
- increase self-esteem and confidence
- work on cognitive and learning skills
- enhance self-awareness and social skills
- have fun working around horses.
