Horses don’t judge by appearance. They look past peoples’ disabilities and recognize the emotions inside. Horseback riding provides physical therapy. Walking with the horse, touching the horse, grooming the horse all provide emotional therapy.
"Gift Horses" shows the benefits of interacting with horses:
- Horses provide a safe and protected venue to help Autistic children speak for the first time.
- Horses comfort people disabled by grief.
- Horseback riding gives blind people the freedom and mobility to go wherever they want.
- Horseback riding puts wheelchair users at the same eye level as able-bodied riders.
- Horseback riding gives wheelchair users the ability to travel over any terrain.
