Adaptive Riding

Adaptive or therapeutic riding is a unique combination of sport, recreation and education. Specially trained PATH certified instructors use their knowledge of disabilities to teach horsemanship skills to riders with varying ability levels.

Device

A typical lesson involves safety on and around horses, warm up exercises, games and riding skills including equitation and obstacle. Increased strength, balance and self-esteem are some of the benefits of this wonderful recreational activity.

All riders wear an ASTM-SEI approved helmet and use standard English or western tack or equipment specially adapted to their needs. Riders should wear long pants and closed toe shoes or boots.

Our staff will evaluate students and their goals and ability will determine the length of the riding lesson. Lessons are $65 for a ½ hour private or a 1-hour group lesson (3 or more riders – the instructor will determine eligibility for group lessons).

Physical, Occupational & Speech and Language Therapy

Therapy Services at Ride On is an outpatient clinic that provides high quality occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), and speech-language therapy (ST) services to both adults and children with special needs. Our therapists work to provide individualized care using a transdisciplinary team approach. Each individual is evaluated, and a plan of care is carefully developed to meet his or her needs.

Device

We specialize in occupational, physical, and speech-language pathology services that utilize the movement of the horse (hippotherapy) as one treatment tool used during therapy sessions. Therapists will determine if the use of the horse’s movement is safe, appropriate, and beneficial. The horse provides multidimensional movement and sensory experiences, and our therapists use it to challenge a patient's balance, strength, coordination, motor control, sensory processing, speech and communication, and more.

Our therapists also have clinic spaces that give them access to treatment tools and strategies in order to develop an individualized plan of care for each patient. Clinic spaces come equipped with therapy tools such as a suspended swing, a partial weight bearing treadmill system, and a variety of other therapy equipment.
