Riding Towards Independence

School of Health Sciences’ Dr. Remeshwar (Rem) Narain on Hippotherapy’s Effect on Children

For Rem Narain, OTD, OTR/L, watching a child learn to ride a horse is a magical moment. “The children are seven feet up and they’re receiving input from the horse,” explained Dr. Narain. “Some of the children are autistic, others use wheelchairs, but on the horse, they forget their challenges and experience the independence of being on a horse—something you don’t get in regular therapy.”
