Has anyone had this therapy for their child? How did they respond? Any suggestions? (This is basically OT on a Horse.)

I just wanted to share this with you all...I wondered about this. My son did it and responded well to it!!! He zoned out on the horse and was so calm afterwards. It was like he could finally exhale! It was so nice to see him like that!!!

I was in a theraputic riding program myself as a child and I know it helped me - and it also gave me a great love of horses! I would recommend it, though it might be a bit pricy.
