Six week riding programme evaluating the effect on the sensory, motor and biomechanical systems using three outcome measures, the Rhomberg, the Timed Up and Go, and the Spinal Alignment and Range of Movement Measure, (SAROMM).Results Clinically significant change to the Rhomberg and development of symmetry. Timed Up and Go result becoming age matched to that of an able-bodied person. Clinical and statistical improvement to the SAROMM was demonstrated, mainly affected by the change to hip range of movement.Conclusion Therapeutic riding has demonstrated improvements to the three primary systems involved with postural control. The case study was completed using outcome measures easily reproduced in clinical practice. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

Riding therapy education and training is viewed as a complimentary process. The educational and training program is multi formal and is for three years. Course periodscan alternate with independent study and practical hands on training. The goal of this educational process is to enable the riding therapist to apply the concepts in their areaof professional expertise. The cost for riding therapy is usually covered by the National Insurance Hospitals, or by the insurance companies. A normal session consists of one hour and often includes exercises with the horse and in the stable before mounting. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

Respiration and motor speech measurements were taken prior to initiation of intervention, before and after each of seven hippotherapy sessions, and after cessation of intervention. Improvement in each measurement from both participants after each hippotherapy session was documented. The participant with spastic cerebral palsy demonstrated greater effects than the participant with athetoid cerebral palsy and the motor speech measurements improved more than the respiratory measurements. Hippotherapy appears to facilitate improved motor coordination resulting in immediate improved respiratory function and control of speech in persons with cerebral palsy. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

This disturbance is a result of abnormalities on afferent stimulation of the integration of these stimuli to the cerebral trunk or the cerebellum. This provokes an abnormal sensory input producing a cycle, repetition of abnormal movements and postures-deficit of tonic adjustments. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

(BOTELHO, 2003)The Hippotherapy (Equoterapia in Brazil) was selected as treatment, which accordingto A DE-BRASIL (Brazil's equivalent to ARHA), is a therapeutic and educational methodology that uses the horse within an interdisciplinary approach in the areas of health, education and horseback riding, searching the bio-psycho-social development on people with deficiency and/or special necessities. When the horse moves at the walk, it produces a three-dimensional motion on its back, in the three axis, up and down, forward and backward, to the right and to the left, besides a rotational component which makes the horse's pelvis suffer a rotation as if it were walking. The benefits of this therapy occur because stimulus are generated with rhythm, amplitude and speed capable of decreasing the muscular tonus through the slow vestibular stimulation. The proprioceptive information that children receive when they are on the horse favors the muscular tonus adaptation and facilitates normal motor function (FREIRE, 1999). Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

This pathology is mostly characterized by a motor disturbance during childhood, as a result of a cerebral disorder. Central Nervous System lesions are a constant challenge for rehabilitation professionals, due to diversity of these pathological disorders. Therapeutic horse riding or hippotherapy is a complement to the rehabilitation program for these patients. The integration with this animal helps patients, stimulating neuropsychomotor reorganization. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

The aim is to develop a stable community and surroundings in an educational way and to improve knowledge of possibilities for using social pedagogical horse activities of those professionals who teach at riding schools and work at stables. In our stables in Finland there are many youngsters, the majority of whom have their lives in quite good order. In addition, there are also those who have different kinds of social and educational problems. Social pedagogical thinking in horse activities creates potential opportunities to help those who already seem to have problems in their personal lives. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

And… Show more (+) Transdisciplinarity is the subject of my presentation. This poetic prologue deals with diversity, the background of our therapeutic work. And pays two tributes: to Lady Oi and to Vincent Van Gogh. Metamorphosis, transformation and freedom are also present in it.How do we deal with diversity in our work, with differences, with transformation and with freedom? Transdisciplinarity is the proposition, the new paradigm.How to tackle diversity in our work, within our teams, is a challenge to all professionals who work with therapeutic riding. And we do so in a way strongly marked by traditional Cartesian paradigm. Show less (-) | €5.00 | ||

The therapist must also initiate and support rapport between themselves and the horse as well as the client and the horse. Although much has been written on establishing rapport in the clinical environment, there is a paucity of writings on establishing rapport within this trichotomy (therapist-client-horse). The purpose of this paper is to highlight variables associated with establishing good therapeutic rapport within equine therapy (hippotherapy, equine-facilitated psychotherapy).
