Offer for nursery schools
Hiporehabilitation center Mirákl, o.p.s. offers a program for nursery schools, the so-called Activities using horses. Their goal is to bring children closer to nature represented by the horse and also to show them what a regular day at a horse farm looks like. The children get some fresh air and learn to care for horses.
The therapy takes place at our farm in Holubice. We have prepared special program for children; its length depends on the number of children (usually 1-2 hours). In the first part the children can have a look inside the stables, see what our horses can do and how our trainers care for them and how they practice; they can also try themselves how to care for the horses. The children will see work with horses from the ground and from saddle, longeing etc. Our horses are specially trained for hiporehabilitation, so it is also possible to adjust the "stable therapy" for children under 2.
The second part of the program consists in horse riding as such. We ride one horse that has been specially trained for hipotherapy (on a blanket with handles); a leader and a physiotherapist are always present during the ride. It is possible for parents to ask for a physiotherapist's report concerning the clinical condition of the child's locomotor system with an conclusion whether motor treatment (physiotherapy) is advisable for the child or not.
Additional program is prepared for the other children in an examining room nearby the stables during the rides. Children can also use a trampoline and a playground. Tea will be prepared for the children; snacks can also be arranged if required. Children will always meet our canistherapeutic dogs who really enjoy long stroking. In bad weather we can use our roofed hall.
