Today was an amazing day, Claire started horse therapy.
First time on a horse and she did it for 45 minutes. We are so proud of how resilient this kid is, nothing gets her down. We look forward to adding this to our many therapies we keep Claire in to keep her strong and engaged.
Studies have indicated that horse therapy has been successful in helping patients show improvements in many areas including:
- Assertiveness
- Emotional awareness
- Empathy
- Stress tolerance
- Flexibility
- Impulse control
- Problem-solving skills
- Self-actualization
- Independence
- Interpersonal relationships
