Children with ADHD, inattention, easy distractibility, disorganisation and other cognitive disabilities benefit greatly from Equitherapy, which involves the use of ponies to help children gain better focus and concentration. We incorporate fun and stimulating exercises that contribute towards fine and gross motor skills development and sensory integration, which is needed for the best possible outcomes from the learning process. Equitherapy also develops the child’s ability to conceive, plan and execute that which needs to be done.

Equitherapy is also beneficial in developing muscle tone as the child continuously uses core muscles to balance. The child’s self-esteem and self-confidence are cultivated in a fun filled and stress free environment. The interaction between the pony and the child also improves the child’s social and behavioural skills. Equitherapy also helps the child with physical handicaps, psychological problems and assists children to gain self-understanding and emotional growth.

We use our ponies to create a stress free environment where the child, through ‘play’ is given the chance to learn new skills.

The actual therapist is the pony itself. The pony represents the most important qualities during therapy and ultimately encourages the child to do her/his best!
