Hippotherapy is a treatment that uses the multidimensional movement of the horse; from the Greek word "hippos" which means horse. Specially trained physical, occupational and speech therapists use this medical treatment for clients who have movement dysfunction. Historically, the therapeutic benefits of the horse were recognized as early as 460 BC.
About Me
- Jane--anne
- The Beginning. When Guildford (Surrey UK) born Jane-anne moved to Sudan in 1990, she brought with her, her life long passion for horses. Over twenty years on and Jane-anne as an experienced riding instructor and horse trainer is using her equine skills for the therapeutic benefit of disadvantaged (disabled, orphaned) Sudanese children. Not long after settling in the Sudan with Sudanese husband Yassin in 1990, Jane-anne started rescuing and rehabilitating maltreated horses. To pay for the care and upkeep of these horses she started giving riding lessons opening a riding school/farm in Bahri, Khartoum in 1994.
