Abstract

In this article, the effectiveness of improving the health of people with disabilities through hippotherapy sessions was analyzed. The study was conducted with the participation of respondents diagnosed with cerebral palsy, stroke, and spinal curvature (scoliosis). The results showed that a two-month hippotherapy program significantly improved motor activity, muscle strength, balance, and posture. This methodology is recommended as an innovative and effective method for the rehabilitation of persons with disabilities.
