The Equine Assisted Therapy Program offers private occupational, physical, and speech therapy sessions with trained and licensed therapists for children and adults. In this unique setting for outpatient rehabilitation, therapists utilize the horse and the horse’s movement in conjunction with traditional therapy techniques to improve functional outcomes. The horse is a wonderful motivator, and clients are usually very responsive in this type of treatment setting.
