A person with a disability is only limited if they allow themselves to be. Where doctorsâ€™ methods fail, horses are there to help provide results. Equine therapeutic riding (commonly called horse therapy) is a fairly new form of therapy designed for people of all ages who live with any number of both physical and mental impairments.

In its simplest sense, riding forces the human body to mimic the movement patterns of the horseâ€™s pelvis, which in turn adds to their own range of movement while away from the barn. The results of therapy riding visibly increase with each passing week. This guide explains the processes that take place at the therapy barn and the results that can be seen in the riders afterwards, all written from the point of view of a current horse therapy volunteer.

Hereâ€™s what youâ€™ll learn by reading this guide:
â€¢Eligibility requirements for riders
â€¢Explanations behind the reason that equine therapy works
â€¢How to become a volunteer, which is a necessary component of every therapeutic riding program
â€¢The positions open to volunteers

â€¢The equipment used during lessons
â€¢The variety of exercises and activities utilized in each lesson

â€¢The visible/audible benefits of therapy riding
