Hippotherapy

how can you combine therapeutic riding with physical therapy?

ok what i really want to do is therapeutic riding(horses,) but the field itself is not guaranteed to make that much money. how can i combine it with physical therapy so i can get the best of both worlds?

  1. You can become a PT and specialize in hippotherapy. You can incorperate specific riding postures to induce certain muscular reactions. This is particularly beneficial in children with hypotonic CP or other low tone disorders. You might not get a full days worth of clients, but you might be able to do some traditional land based PT and see a few clients a week for hippotherapy.
