FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Montgomery Area Non-traditional Equestrians (M.A.N.E.)
M.A.N.E. is a non-profit organization formed in 1994 that provides safe and effective therapeutic horseback riding opportunities to Tri-County children and adults who have physical, cognitive and developmental disabilities. Their 30-acre facility in East Montgomery operates seven days a week, 52 weeks per year and features a large outdoor riding arena, office/house, 12-stall barn, indoor riding area, pond and other amenities. M.A.N.E. helps low income families and individuals with cerebral palsy, learning disabilities, hearing & visual impairments, A.D.D., down syndrome, multiple sclerosis, autism, spina bifida, epilepsy and more.
For individuals who have muscular disorders, the horse's movement and the warmth of the animal's body provide a foundation for physical benefits, including balance, range of motion and muscle control, as well as the development of more efficient motor planning while strengthening muscles, joints and tendons. The activities involved in therapeutic horseback riding have also been known to improve respiration, circulation, appetite and digestion.
Mentally or emotionally challenged riders experience improved concentration, patience, self-discipline, motivation and interpersonal skills, providing a stronger foundation upon which conventional therapies can be more effectively implemented. The responses that a rider can elicit from a horse add some personal control to the life of a person who is not able to participate in every day activities. Such accomplishments build self-esteem and confidence.
