About Us
Amazing Grace Equine Therapy enhances the lives of children and adults with a very broad range of disabilities and also those who are survivors of Trauma. Through the use of a variety of Equine Assisted Activity programs such as Therapeutic Riding, Equine Facilitated Learning, and Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy, our site provides a refreshing departure from conventional clinical treatment facilities. Our participants benefit from the use of an outdoor and indoor heated riding arena, meeting facilities, and a quiet and peaceful environment.
Equine Assisted Activities have been shown to improve self-control, increase risk-taking capacity, encourage teamwork, and bolster confidence and self-esteem. Individuals with physical disabilities benefit primarily through the movements of the horse, which strengthen and support the natural motion of the spine and pelvis. Riding also builds and tones muscles; improves flexibility, balance, and coordination; and fosters greater freedom of movement. Those with cognitive or learning impairments can improve their attention span, communication and language skills, and concentration and memory.
Our equine program currently serves individuals affected by Autism, Down Syndrome, Muscular Dystrophy, Multiple Sclerosis, Sickle Cell Anemia, Spina Bifida, Cerebral Palsy, Developmental Disabilities, Sensory Disorders, and other many conditions.
