The benefits of hippotherapy – an explanation from a therapist

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In this episode of KN Talks, Aideen McGarry speaks with Louise Barrett, a qualified hippotherapist, about the benefits of equine therapies.

This therapeutic approach harnesses the power of horses to benefit individuals with disabilities. Hippotherapy has been utilised by clients of the Clinical Negligence and Personal Injury department, particularly disabled children.

In this podcast, Louise explains in detail what is involved in this specialised therapy, as well as its benefits for both physical and mental health.

Aideen and Louise also discuss the increasing popularity of hippotherapy, the research surrounding it, and the hope that it will be more widely included in compensation packages in legal claims.

Louise provides clear and comprehensive information, from how the right horse is selected for each person to how individuals can access hippotherapy.

So saddle up and join us as we explore the rhythmic movements, warmth, and balance-enhancing effects of these gentle equine partners.
