Welcome To Dusty Boots Riding Therapy “Dusty hands,
dusty faces, dusty grins, dusty boots …
A horse’s rhythmic movements helps strengthen the rider’s “whole self”, which results in improved balance and posture. Motor skills, hand/eye coordination and interactive abilities improve; in addition, there is a sense of empowerment and independence along with a higher degree of self esteem. The use of horses has gained increased interest in the world of psychotherapy. Those who are familiar with horses have always acknowledged their power to influence people in amazing ways. Horses have the ability to mirror what the human body language tells them. Accomplishing a task involving a horse increases confidence and provides wonderful metaphors when dealing with other challenging situations in life.
Volunteers are the most integral part of our program. These dedicated individuals assist in all aspects of the therapy riding experience including: Horse Care: Barn cleaning, grooming and exercising Session Support: Saddling, leading and side walking Staff Support: Fundraising, public relations and volunteer coordination
