HHH provides Hippotherapy, or Therapeutic Horseback Riding to children with autism and other special needs. Hippotherapy and Animal Assisted Therapy can be very effective for improving the communications skills of children with autism and special needs, and can provide many other benefits, including improved core muscle strength, balance, and coordination, and improved social skill development in all children. Equine Assisted Therapy has also been proven to reduce stress and anxiety and depression in both children and adults.
