It has been proven that by combining both rhythm and balancing, such as horseback riding, can help stabilize and relax the sensory system. There are many studies that have been done regarding the physical and mental benefits of interacting with horses and it only takes a second to notice the difference in the way that you feel, just walking up to a horse.
The best selling book, The Horse Boy: A Father’s Quest to Heal His Son, by Rupert Isaacson was just published this past spring. When his son Rowan was diagnosed with autism, Rupert Isaacson was devastated, afraid he might never be able to communicate with his child. But when Isaacson, a lifelong horseman, rode their neighbor’s horse with Rowan, Rowan improved immeasurably. Rupert is now bringing equine therapy to help autistic children in Britain. Amazing story!
River Valley Horse Ranch has the perfect horse for you! Located in the heart of the Minnesota River Valley. Anytime is the perfect time, to get back on the saddle again!
