Therapeutic Team Reveals Horses’ Magic in Aiding Children With Disabilities

Contemporary thoughts might say a person with a disability cannot ride a horse as it requires extensive balance, but originally, reports said horse riding significantly helps children with disabilities such as autism, cerebral palsy, anxiety etc. The riding instructor, Anthony Busacca and the speech pathologist, Keith O'Connor, have some interesting facts about the same.

Busacca’s thoughts about therapeutic horse riding

According to Anthony Busacca, the education coordinator and therapeutic riding instructor, the entire body goes through an exercising posture while riding a horse. No other exercise can provide equal benefits like horse riding.

Busacca’s say on mental support

During a recent conference at the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International Conference, Busacca stated horse riding not only helps the patients exercise but also lets them feel valued as they are ultimately doing something like those people who don't have disabilities.

Keith O’Connor reveals some interesting facts

On a similar row, speech pathologist Keith O’Connor stated horse riding also significantly positively impacts children’s speech improvement. While riding horses, children feel an urge to communicate, which hastens their communication skills. Apart from that, horse riding also calms their neurological system, which also has a significant impact on their speech development.
