At Phantom’s Legacy we use our rescue therapy ponies to allow our clients to experience the benefits of working and interacting with equines. Animal based therapy and the use of therapets has proven successful in reducing anxieties, stresses and boosting overall general mental health. The techniques we employ focus on building a mutual respect and trust with the ponies by following their cues and using natural horsemanship techniques.
These sessions are tailored to suit the requirements of the participants and range from simply petting and grooming the ponies through to learning the day-to-day care and everything in-between. They are suitable for clients from 3 years upwards and those with additional support needs. Please contact us for more information.
Although these are standalone sessions, there are opportunities for formal development. Our Foundation and Introductory Equido Courses would be a natural progression route from these therapy sessions should participants wish to build their knowledge and achieve a worldwide recognised qualification.
