Riding To The Top, a PATH Intl. Premier Accredited Center in Windham, ME, will host a research study on the benefits of therapeutic riding.
The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus (CU Anschutz) in Aurora, Colorado, in collaboration with the Maine Medical Center Research Institute, has been awarded a $2.5 million grant to study why therapeutic horseback riding benefits children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), particularly children who have co-occurring psychiatric diagnoses.
A previous study by Principal Investigator Robin Gabriels, PsyD, a CU Anschutz researcher and Children's Hospital Colorado psychologist, showed that a 10-week therapeutic horseback riding intervention reduced irritability and hyperactivity while improving the social and communication skills of youth diagnosed with ASD.
The Maine portion of the study will be conducted at Riding To The Top Therapeutic Riding Center (RTT). The research will begin this summer at Riding To The Top.
