Why Mini Horses?
Miniature horse therapy brings unique benefits to different groups.
In senior centers, minis spark joy, stimulate memory, and reduce loneliness, giving residents uplifting emotional connections
At VA homes, the horses provide comfort for veterans coping with PTSD, encourage social interaction, and help lower stress levels through their calm, grounding presence.
In schools, mini horses help children build empathy, improve focus, and help kids regulate emotions in positive ways.
No matter the setting, the gentle presence of a miniature horse touches emotions, encourages healing, and strengthens connections in ways that traditional therapy sometimes can’t reach.
