Horses Help Autistic Children
The 3-dimensional gait of a horse is a valuable therapeutic tool. This movement and the warmth of the horse promotes many physical benefits. *
Group riding activities promote interactive socialization, increase in vocalization and attention span.
Each rider has short and long-term therapeutic riding objectives that are monitored and measured to meet and challenge riders’ abilities.
Disabled adults and children benefit both physically and emotionally from their encounters with horses.
The American Paint Horse Foundation raised $25,000 to start a therapeutic riding program for children and adults so they can experience the healing power of horses.
Horses teach med students bedside manner. Students are assigned tasks that must be accomplished using only body language.
