Notes

The American Hippotherapy Association suggests that Hippotherapy can improve balance, posture, mobility and function. It may also affect psychological, cognitive, behavioral and communication functions for clients of all ages.

Hippotherapy, as part of an overall treatment strategy, can be appropriate for a wide range of ages and diagnoses. Individuals as young as two years of age through adulthood may benefit. Diagnoses often seen are Down's Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Autism, Developmental Delays, Traumatic Brain Injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Spina Bifida and more.
