Our vision at Ride and Shine is to provide a healing center where horses and humans build connections through safe, individualized therapies to strengthen the body, mind, and soul.

Hippotherapy is the use of the movement of the horse to stimulate the client's neuromotor, cognitive, and sensory system to work toward their individualized physical or occupational therapy goals.   We work with various clients ranging in age from 2.5 years to 65 years.  We have worked with clients with many different diagnoses including cerebral palsy, Down Syndrome, autism, developmental delay, and inclusion body myositis to name a few.  The horse provides a unique three-dimensional movement that mimics the human body's movement to allow all the muscles in the body to work in coordination the way they were meant.  We are excited to also provide mental health services as well.
