Equine Assisted Services offers a unique opportunity to foster mutually healthy relationships that engage and regulate the brain's limbic system—the center of emotion and connection. Positioned between the brain's cognitive (thinking) and sensory-motor (movement and sensation) regions, the limbic system plays a vital role in healing through relational experiences. By activating the whole brain, this approach can facilitate deeper, more integrative healing than traditional talk therapy in an office setting often allows.
