Did you know a horse participating in a Hippotherapy program; has the same stress level as a horse competing at an Olympic level?
At Saddled Souls; we take pride in our horses over all well-being.
From the correct minerals, & high protein forage, we feed. To their massages, magnetic therapy. & most importantly trimming their hooves every 5 weeks.
When we trim/shoe; we trim/shoe the whole horse.
Setting them up for success! Allowing them to move in a natural gait; which is critical for this practice.
Our biggest tool in this program is the horses natural gait. Giving us the ability to utilize the movement of the horses and maximizing our children’s mounted time.
Mounted time can help improve;
Sensory stimulation
Balance
Posture control
Muscle tone
Coordination
Increase range of motion in joints
Increased attention span
Boast of self esteem and confidence
Improved social skills
Reduce anxiety and stress
