Abby did hippotherapy for a few summers and falls, and therapeutic riding for a few as well. The first summer she did hippotherapy we had her evaluated by a different PT at the beginning and end of the summer. She make 13 months progress in ten weeks' time! I remain convinced hippotherapy was what put her over the hump to being able to function enough like her peers it takes a practiced eye to note her difficulties.

If you have a good PT who is also a horse person, hippotherapy can be wonderful.
