Medicine Horse provides an affordable continuum of healing experiences of body, mind and spirit for challenged individuals and their families. Utilizing the movement of the horse and therapy techniques, Medicine Horse enables challenged individuals to grow in functional skills and self esteem.

The managed health care system has placed many children and adults with long term disabilities at risk. Ongoing physical therapy services are no longer available. Therapy sessions are limited to 20 to 30 per year or even for a lifetime. The problems of these children and adults do not get better on their own. They often get worse. There are few, if any alternatives for improving their functional skills. Medicine Horse serves as a bridge between direct therapy services and affordable, therapeutic activities that can help these persons continue to improve their functional skills and to develop the pride that comes from learning a new skill. Medicine Horse provides direct therapy services in coordination with Children's Therapy Center in Hippotherapy sessions. It also provides developmental, therapeutic, and recreational riding experiences that allow the adult or child to progress at his or her own pace. Medicine Horse also provides riding lessons for parents or siblings to let this become a family oriented activity in which members could participate.
