Review for Halleck Creek Ranch Therapeutic Riding and Equine Assisted Activities, Nicasio, CA, USA
My son has low muscle tone and some learning disabilities. His O.T. suggested that he try Theraputic Horseback Riding. We had tried many other therapies and spend alot of money on them, but nothing worked. We were willing to try this because Halleck Creek Ranch offered their services for free. My son, started at Halleck Creek Ranch in April 2009. He loves horseback riding there. The staff and volunteers have been great! Their helpfull, friendly, encouraging and knowledgeble. My son looks forward to Wednesday (his riding day). He now rides the horse without the horse being lead. He's groomed and saddled the horses. Not only has my son had fun there, it has help his low muscle tone and his learning. He is more confident and willing to try new things in the learning enviroment. His muscle tone (core) strenghth has improved and he is able to hold himself upright longer than before. We're glad to have found a place that can help our son with his issues at a cost we can afford.
