Holistic Hooves Therapy

Integrating the therapeutic benefits of Equine Assisted Therapy with the holistic approach of Occupational Therapy.

Our Aim

Holistic Hooves Therapy aims to provide holistic and comprehensive Occupational Therapy services which incorporate Equine Assisted Therapy, including the speciality of Hippotherapy.

Our focus is to enhance the well-being of individuals through holistic and collaborative therapeutic interventions which centre around the unique benefits of equine-assisted activities.

The Holistic Approach

An approach which is holistic and person-centred is a pillar of Occupational Therapy. This means that on assessment, all areas of the individual’s life will be considered, and specific goals will be discussed and agreed upon between therapist and client.

Collaborative Partnership

Working collaboratively between client, therapist, and equine is essential for fostering a positive therapeutic partnership. Building this foundation helps to improve therapeutic outcomes, resulting in meaningful client progress.

“In occupational therapy, movements of the horse are utilised with the intention to improve motor control, coordination, balance, attention, sensory processes, and performance in daily activities.”
