Therapeutic Riding
Lessons teach riding skills tailored to the needs of each individual. Physical benefits include improved muscle tone, gait, balance and posture. Individual cognitive skills increase through following directions and sequencing. Regulation of emotions and behavior increases as participants learn to communicate successfully with the horses.

Therapeutic riding lessons are $70 per lesson. Riders register by the session.
Hippotherapy
Hippotherapy uses the movement of the horse to facilitate individual treatment by a licensed therapist. Simple Changes’ hippotherapy program is conducted in conjunction with progressivepediatrics.net at Simple Changes Farm. Cost is determined by the therapist.
