Horses have stood quietly in ranks under artillery barrage, charged into battle, carried knights in armour, pulled caissons, ambulances, and supply wagons, and trained to lie down to provide cover for firing cavalry troopers.Even today horses tolerate the banners and noise of parades, police horses calmly manipulate rioting mobs, and horses pack dead game for hunters. Buffalo and boar have been pursued on horseback. In some areas highly trained horses deftly avoid the charges of fighting bulls. In the ranching industry all over the world, stock horses mingle with and control herds of half-wild cattle. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

This is logical considering the fact that flight - the instinct to sprint away from perceived danger - is the species' principal defensive behaviour, but it is also a bit surprising considering the size of the animal.

Survey methodology was used to report information about the physical and psychological changes experienced by 8persons with MS who engage in horseback ridingfor therapeutic benefits. Descriptive techniques were used to analyze data from the survey participants.Responses obtained from the surveys were totalled and percentages compared. The literature review presents the symptoms and treatment interventions associated with the disease including the equine treatment techniques of hippotherapy and therapeutic riding. The model of human occupation is presented to establish the role of the occupational therapist when providing equine therapy treatment. Facts and information are reported on 8 horseback ridingfacilities in northern California who provide horseback riding therapy. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

Many researchers mentioned the discrepancy between the quantitative and the qualitative results. A possible explanation for this discrepancy is given. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

The supposed bioenergy informational system consists of subsystems: the protective energy covering of the body - the aura; the system of energy centers - the chakras; the system of acupuncture meridians, points and microsystems of the ear, foot, etc. We have based our conclusions on both the theoretical work of the professional public /supposed existence of sensors for very low magnetic field! and our own practical experiences. In our opinion, during therapeutic riding exist transfer from energy field of the horse to the patient and vice versa with a energy complementation on the patient. Also we suppose an important effect on the first chakra and we predict an acupressure stimulation of acupuncture meridians and points." ... they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.

" (F.J.Buytendijk)"For man and animal movement is an expression (sign) of life."(F.J.Buytendijk)These two definitions of movement describe different aspects: a pure jUnctional one and a more experiential aspect. This paper defines movement in its common dimensions like space - time - gravity and reveals a fourth aspect which is important for movement development. This is the movementdialogue as a basic communication means. Like Anna Freud's concept of developmental lines, four movement developmental lines are drawn to unfold an understanding for psychic and psychomotor dimensions of Developmental Riding.A short case study serves as an example for remedial aspects of treatment with the help of horses.

Perception is dependent upon the senses. The horse has the same five senses that we do: Visual, Olfactory, Auditory, Tactile, and Gustatory. They differ from ours, however, and the horse, therefore, perceives its world differently than we do. The flightiness of this prey creature would not serve to keep it alive in a natural habitat populated with carnivorous, predatory species unless it could detect their approach. Overwhelmingly, that is the primary function of the horse's senses, just as its anatomical and physiological adaptations must serve to allow the flight response to have the speed to escape danger.

The hippotherapy was integrated into their existing physiotherapy management and was planned in blocks of 6 - 10 sessions.Each child was jointly assessed by the physiotherapist managing their care and the physiotherapist practising the hippotherapy. The children were reassessed after each block and improvements measured. Both children made significant improvements in their walking pattern. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

In addition, a number of informal discussions were held on the same subject. This paper outlines the subjects discussed at these session, and outlines the steps undertaken by the FRDI to address the issues raised Show less (-) | €5.00 |
