I CAN-T.E.R., in collaboration with Port Colborne Speech and Language Therapy is elated to offer Hippotherapy as a treatment tool for the provision of speech and language intervention. The term hippotherapy literally means "treatment with the help of a horse" from the greek word "hippos" meaning horse. It refers to how occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech-language pathology professionals use evidence-based practice and clinical reasoning in the purposeful manipulation of equine movement to engage sensory and neuromotor development. 

This program takes place alongside a Registered Speech and Language Pathologist. Please contact us at icanter@icanter.ca to inquire further about this program, its fees, and how it could be of benefit to you.
