Top 3 Reasons Why Veterans Benefit from Visual Aides in Equine Assisted Therapy 🐴

Equine Assisted Therapy is a powerful tool for healing, especially for veterans. Here’s why incorporating visual aides can make these sessions even more effective:

Enhanced Communication 📣
Visual aides bridge communication gaps, helping veterans express their thoughts and ideas more clearly. Once Upon a Ride's visual tools simplify complex equestrian topics, making it easier for veterans to share their journey and progress.

Improved Learning and Retention 🧠
Seeing is believing! Visual aides aid in better understanding and remembering therapeutic concepts. Whether it’s sequencing an obstacle course or step-by-step task guides these tools help veterans grasp and retain information more effectively.

Reduced Anxiety and Stress 🌿
Visual aides provide a sense of predictability and structure, which can be calming for veterans dealing with anxiety and PTSD. Knowing what to expect and having clear visual instructions can make therapy sessions less intimidating and more approachable.

Incorporating visual aides in Equine Assisted Therapy can make a significant difference for our veterans. Let’s make every session impactful and healing! 💪

Unique Teeth Structure: Horses have a fascinating dental structure. They have a total of 36 to 44 teeth, but their teeth continue to erupt throughout their lives. Unlike humans, whose teeth stop growing after a certain age, a horse's teeth can grow up to several millimeters each year, gradually wearing down from chewing roughage.

Large Eyes: Horses have some of the largest eyes of any land mammal, positioned on the sides of their head to give them a wide field of vision. This positioning allows them to see nearly 360 degrees around them, making it easier to detect potential threats.

Sleeping Standing Up: Horses have the ability to sleep both standing up and lying down, thanks to a unique system of ligaments and tendons that lock their legs in place while standing. This adaptation allows them to quickly flee from predators if needed.
