The Docter is in!

"You see a horse . . . I see . . . Freedom, Spirit, Courage, Strength, Heart, Grace, Honesty, Therapy . . ." -Unknown

    
    Horses have so many side effects to them and not a single one is bad! Horses have helped people with disabilities from a broken back to depression and even ADD. For horse therapy to work it takes more than just a few rides, it takes a friendship and the willingness to care for one another. Even animals will start to find a friend in people that take time for them. Although, horses can have a major effect on a person's life by improving their physical and mental well being.  There is no particular amount of time in which you would see a change in someone. For some people it is instantaneous, the connection they have with these big animals.  For others, it takes a longer time to bond and begin to trust a horse to take care of you.  However it is 100% worth it.
    Now some might question what horses have to do with the healing process, but until you experience a horse for yourself you will not understand. Even if you do not have any problems either mentally, physically, or emotionally, a horse can only improve your life.
