Have you ever wanted your Rett Syndrome loved one to try hippotherapy? It has many benefits to improve coordination, muscle tone, mood, mobility, balance & motor skills. Come join other Rett families for a casual Sunday morning with horses! Beginners totally welcome! No pressure & all the equipment is provided. A licensed physical therapist will help your loved one get comfortable with the horse, ride & do exercises to their individual comfort level. We have been running this program for a few years and it has been such a joy for the families. All abilities welcome.
