Fun fact on hippotherapy! 🐴✨

Did you know that a horse's movement is key in hippotherapy?
The core of hippotherapy lies in the unique, multi-dimensional movement of a horse's pelvis, which mimics the human gait during walking, providing a rhythmic and repetitive sensory experience! This is one of the MANY benefits our patients get here at Special Strides!
