For Children
We utilise equine therapy to support children with developmental challenges, enhancing their gross and fine motor skills, balance, coordination and sensory processing abilities.
The rhythmic motion of riding a horse helps children with sensory processing disorders to better integrate and respond to sensory information, leading to improved focus, regulation and overall function.
Our equine therapy programs foster self-esteem, confidence and social skills in children providing opportunities for interaction, communication and emotional bonding with both horses and peers.
We offer therapeutic riding sessions specifically designed for children, helping them develop strength, flexibility and coordination through structured riding activities.
For Adults
Equine therapy aids adults in recovering from physical injuries, surgeries or neurological conditions by improving core strength, balance and overall mobility through the therapeutic movement of the horse.
Interacting with horses can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and PTSD. Our equine therapy programs help adults build emotional resilience, improve mood and develop coping skills.
The gentle movement of riding a horse can assist in managing chronic pain by enhancing muscle tone, improving posture and promoting relaxation.
Equine therapy helps adults gain confidence and self-esteem as they learn to communicate and work with horses, achieving goals and overcoming challenges in a supportive environment.
Through interactions with horses, people with disabilities can experience benefits such as:
- Improved physical strength and coordination through activities like grooming, leading and riding.
- Increased self-esteem and confidence through bonding and relationships with horses.
- Reduced anxiety and stress levels through interactions with horses and being in a calming environment.
- Improved cognitive and emotional development including: social skills, communication and self-awareness.
