Episode description
Heart of the Horse Therapy Ranch is committed to promoting therapeutic riding as an efficacious treatment modality for those with a disability by developing community awareness of equine assisted/ facilitated therapy.
Though not everyone with disabilities can safely participate in therapeutic riding activities, HHTR serves a broad segment of the disabled community & Veterans from the Fresno VA Hospital here in the central valley.
Some of the conditions for which therapeutic riding has been proved an effective treatment are cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, sensory impairment (i.e., loss of hearing or sight), Down syndrome, Autism, missing limbs, PTSD, and many other disabilities.
