A Bond of Friendship That Words Can’t Explain
At
Locket’s Meadow Therapeutic Riding Center we provide effective, safe,
innovative
and professional therapeutic riding programs to people from every age
group with a
wide range of physical, mental or emotional disabilities.
To a child or adult with a physical, developmental and
emotional disability, life can
look a lot brighter on horseback. The power and warmth of the horse
strengthens and
tones muscles, improves balance, head control and coordination, builds
self-esteem,
and offers a sense of freedom and equality.
Here at Locket’s Meadow, our program incorporates physical
therapy, unconditional
love gained in the human animal experience, and freedom and mobility that
our riders
cannot experience from any other recreational activities. The feeling of
achievement
and control that comes from riding and maneuvering a 1,200-pound horse is
strong
medicine, replacing self-doubt with self-confidence.
