Therapeutic Riding Activities
At our equestrian centre, therapeutic riding offers a holistic path to growth for individuals with diverse challenges. Our skilled instructors and specially selected horses provide a nurturing space to enhance physical coordination, cognitive function, and emotional well-being. Participants build strength, improve communication, and forge meaningful connections with these magnificent animals, leading to joy and increased self-assurance.
Therapeutic riding is a beneficial because the rhythmic movement of horses improves motor skills, strength, and balance. The unique interaction with these animals boosts self-confidence and emotional regulation, potentially by releasing oxytocin (related to bonding) and endorphins (natural mood lifters). The calming presence of horses and the development of trust can also positively impact the amygdala, the brain region involved in processing emotions like fear and anxiety. Social interaction and cognitive engagement further contribute to its therapeutic effects
