Snappy wants to know…Are you LOOKING FOR THERAPY FOR YOUR CHILD IN A UNIQUE SETTING?
We are excited to have a full barn of therapy ponies in various sizes (and widths) for pretty much any child out there, so we have added additional spots to the therapy schedule in 2024! Our dedicated and passionate Therapists (Occupational Therapists, Speech-Language Pathologist, and Mental Health Professional) love working in a non-traditional setting where they can implement creative therapeutic interventions to improve functional outcomes.

Evelyn: “I was very "picky" when searching for the right place for me to continue my journey practicing hippotherapy. After some research and visiting a few facilities, I found Mane Stream. I enjoy feeling a part of a team, having mentorship and people to bounce ideas off of. I appreciate the fact that there is a clinic space and that they truly understand the concept of hippotherapy - therapy with the help of horses.”

Pauline: “What I like most about treating at Mane Stream is the support and mentorship I receive from both my human and equine coworkers. Mane Stream creates a supportive and collaborative environment, where therapists work closely with horses and volunteers to provide effective therapy to our clients. The opportunity to work alongside these amazing animals in a therapeutic setting is truly rewarding!”
