Description:
Our company was developed to improve the quality of life for the disabled members of the community. Our methods of equine aided therapy has a significant effect on how a person heals, improves range of motion, or stabilizes mentally. The fluid motions of a horse mimic that of a human, therefore the patient must balance either on their own or with the help of volunteers. This not only improves physical disabilities, it has an enormous effect on mental disabilities as well. In our community there is a small stable that provides services that are similar to what we would like to do, but there are waiting lines among the patients that are almost 2 years before they would be able to be seen. Our goal is to reach out to these individuals so they wont have to wait in order to be treated.
