Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT)

Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT) involve structured interactions with horses to promote physical, emotional, and social well-being. These programs are tailored to individual needs, helping improve balance, coordination, confidence, and communication. EAAT is used for various conditions, including disabilities, mental health issues, and developmental delays. The therapy sessions are facilitated by trained professionals and horse handlers, integrating riding or groundwork with therapeutic goals. The calming influence of horses and the engaging nature of activities can motivate clients and foster a sense of trust and accomplishment, supporting overall functional and emotional growth.
