Therapeutic riding utilizes the movement of the horse and specialized activities to maximize the therapeutic benefits to a rider. It is often recommended by physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists to improve flexibility, balance, muscle strength, coordination, posture, and to stimulate the central nervous system.

Other benefits include improved memory, sequencing, attention span, self-awareness, increased self-esteem and self -confidence. Our instructors are experienced equestrians specially trained and certified through NARHA to be Therapeutic Riding Instructors. Hippotherapy with a physical, speech, occupational or mental health therapist is available on a limited basis.
