BENEFITS AT A GLANCE


  • Equine Facilitated Activities offer the opportunity to be in control of one's own mobility.

  • Equines can elegantly and easily get a person to places inaccessible to wheelchairs or unsteady walking.

  • Animals can model positive and negative personality traits for clients.

  • The horse's movement will facilitate activation of postural control, balance, motor and sensory systems.

  • Because movement is so closely linked to other functions, the participant will likely experience other systemic changes such as those in levels of cognitive function, mood or behavioral responses.
