Horse Therapy

I always wanted to be a special education teacher. I began deciding what I wanted to be in the eighth grade. This is also when I was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome. Asperger syndrome is autism spectrum disorder; some people have difficulty reading social interactions and body language. It is difficult for me to make friends and be suitable for age-appropriate conversation. It is difficult to understand people's emotions. I got a gift to help other children with special needs to ride a horse and how to understand that horses communicate differently with these riders and ordinary people .

My recent reading about horse therapy can cure people with special needs through horses through emotional intelligence (learning disabilities, post traumatic stress disorder, drug addicts, criminal prisoners, etc.) I made it clear to me.

During riding, the rider experiences a specific interaction with the animal, where he is thought to share relations and space. This establishes communication, satisfaction and motivation are born, which alleviates symptoms. In equine adjuvant therapy, the effect on the patient's neuromuscular system caused by the mechanical effect of the walking of the horse is observed. This is especially noticeable in motor disorders caused by hereditary lesions such as children with cerebral palsy.

Psychotherapy with horses is also known as equestrian therapy or equine therapy and is an empirical mental health treatment including treatment of people communicating with horses.
