2 / Mental + Physical Improvements, Non-Riding

​

Therapeutic Carriage Driving offers a different interaction with our equine friends. This type of program

offers individuals with physical, mental, sensory, or emotional conditions the rewards of interaction and

control of a horse or pony while driving from a carriage seat or in their own wheelchair. Our therapeutic

carriage driving also provides students the opportunity to " find their voice" due to the verbal communication

required. Carriage driving gives our participants a riding alternative, which opens up the world of horses to

those who may be unable to ride due to weight, balance, fatigue, allergies, asthma, fear of heights, the

inability to sit astride, or other issues. It can also provide the student with a unique movement experience. 
 

This program is best suited for those who want to learn teamwork, improve speech and communication, and

develop a greater understanding of cause-and-effect relationships. The physical benefits include increased

core strength and posture, improved balance, and greater fine and gross motor skills development

among others.

4 / Physical Improvements

Reinbow Rehabilitation offers pediatric physical and occupational therapy services in conjunction with

therapists from The Speech & Hearing Center of Chattanooga and Can Do Kids clinics.

The Physical Therapist (PT) will concentrate on the child's movement goals. The PT will create specific

exercise interventions to improve the way your child moves, in coordination with riding the horse to improve

balance, core strength, and flexibility.

​

An Occupational Therapist (OT) will focus on your child's goals relating to carrying out their everyday

activities. OTs will usually recommend specialized equipment or suggest different ways of performing tasks

that might help your child perform their activities of daily living.

​

Reinbow Rehabilitation is best suited for children who need to acquire, rebuild and develop skills that lead to a

life of greater independence and happiness. We work with children living with all types of special needs.

Ages: 4 years+ through 18 years. 

This program only meets Mondays and Wednesdays.  Most major insurances are accepted. 

 

 

5 / Improving Emotional Health

Taking the Lead Program is for at-risk teens and their families that provides the tools they need to achieve their goals. Taking the Lead is our unmounted group therapy program. 

​

In this program, you will literally take the lead and discover more about yourself and others as you work with your horse. Best suited for those needing trauma- focused work or DBT, but may prefer an environment outside of an office.

​

This program is generally organized through in/out-patient programs, schools, or referrals and works in conjunction with clinical therapy. It is best suited to help at-risk teens and families following DBT models, but find that working on their issues outside of an office is preferable.

​

Please call for rates or to discuss your program needs.

6/ Building Character

​

Mindful Riding is a program that aims to increase confidence, self-esteem, friendships, and responsibility. Horses are therapeutic for anyone, and there is no doubt horses contribute to character building. 

​

Our compassionate and skilled trainers help riders set appropriate goals. By setting the rider up for success, our Mindful Riding program helps build confidence, self-esteem and a sense of responsibility. Riders become a part of our close-knit barn family, feel at home and have a sense of belonging when they are here.

​

Horse Show opportunities are a chance to test one's confidence, work through anxieties, and feel like part of a team. 

​

Best for children or adults who are working to manage feelings of introversion and anxiety or improve their self-esteem.  Some of our participants include those who just need a little extra time or a different method of explanation to process information, or who struggle to make friends. They may not fit in easily with other recreational programs or sports.

Group: $35

Private: $45
