WHITE BRIDLE EQUINE THERAPY
Our obstacle course program integrates the Brain Worx developmental system created by Dr.Michael Hall and Dr. Homero Cavazos to help stimulate under-active areas in the brain (Brain Worx Flyer-1.pdf). This system is beneficial for all kids. It’s especially beneficial for kids with ADD, autism, dyslexia and a host of other neurological disorders in addition to kids with physical limitations.
Cart driving is an excellent therapy, because it improves core strength, balance and spatial planning skills.
White Bridle’s equine assisted therapy program for special needs and physically challenged kids is scheduling private sessions this summer at Mike Lewis Park’s Equestrian Center in Grand Prairie, TX. Please call White Bridle at 972.740.0900 to schedule an appointment with Brook.

Our therapy program is unique, because we use miniature horses. The scale of the horses is right for kids, and we use them to walk an obstacle course performing physical therapy skills and then do cart driving with the minis.
