Settings in Occupational Therapy: Hippotherapy with Alondra Ammon Part 2

Listen Later

What makes hippotherapy unique from other therapies? How does it change people’s lives? How can an experience from therapy make itself an enjoyable experience in a natural context?

 

This week’s Pre OT Secrets, Jesica Lopez will interview Alondra Ammon. Alondra's passions lie in supporting the growth of a culturally responsive occupational therapy workforce. She believed that there is beauty in having diverse cultures no matter where you're from! She encourages everyone from all backgrounds so that we can provide quality education and care to students and clients with compassion and understanding.


They will touch on such topics as:

  • Part of being a therapist is treatment planning and planning of interventions.
    • Refer to your notes to refresh your memory on what you did with your clients in the previous session.
      • What does getting the horse ready mean?
        • What makes it different from other therapies?
        • Who is Hippotherapy for?
          • You cannot replicate what the client gets from every session in hippotherapy, which makes it unique from any other therapy.
            • What are the pros and cons of hippotherapy?
