“…Kwon (2015)'s study showed that horseback riding improved gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy, and Im and Huh (2013) study showed that hippotherapy led to a statistically significant improvement in gross motor function and balance in children with brain lesions. Champagne and Dugas (2010) also reported that hippotherapy enhanced stability, gross motor function, and control of the head and the trunk.…”

“…It has a wide range of applications and intended populations, and experts in various fields have tried to demonstrate its efficacy (Hession et al, 2014;Anesti et al, 2014;Seo, 2012). In terms of outcomes reported by previous studies, Kwon et al (2015) found that hippotherapy improved gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy, and Lee and Jeong (2005) reported that indoor horseback riding exercise was effective in improving stamina, blood lipid concentration, and bowel satisfaction.…”

| Abstract |1 )PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to determine, by conducting a 10 week hippotherapy, the effects on the physical, cognitive and psychological factors of children with intellectual disabilities. RESULTS:The results of this study reveal that first, there was a positive effect. Second, statistically significant differences were found in BBS, TUG, K-MMSE, 10m walking test, 6 min walking test, self-esteem scale and aggression scale (p<.05). However no statistically significant differences were found in upper limbs function and good balance analysis before and after intervention. CONCLUSION:The hippotherapy is effective way to improve the physical, cognitive and psychological factors of children with intellectual disability.

“…[33][34][35] Kwon JY, Chang HJ, Yi SH, Lee JY, Shin HY, Kim YH realizaron un ensayo clínico aleatorizado con 92 niños con diagnóstico de parálisis cerebral a quienes le evaluaron la función motora gruesa, la intervención consistió en 30 minutos de hipoterapia por 8 semanas consecutivas encontrando diferencias significativas para los diferentes niveles de motricidad gruesa y el balance. 38 b. Marcha humana La marcha humana es definida como una serie de movimientos alternantes, rítmicos de las extremidades y del tronco que resultan en un desplazamiento hacia adelante del centro de gravedad. 39 A través de electromiografía dinámica se ha podido comprobar que la mayoría de los grupos musculares de la extremidad inferior están activos durante el ciclo de marcha, especialmente al principio y final de la fase de apoyo y la fase oscilante, debido a aceleraciones y desaceleraciones de la extremidad y transferencias del peso del cuerpo de un pie al otro.…”

ResumenLa habilitación y rehabilitación son procesos a través de los cuales las personas con discapacidad tienen la oportunidad de contar y mantener óptimos niveles en los planos físico, sensorial, intelectual, psicológico y social; a pesar de la existencia de diferentes campos de habilitación y rehabilitación en la fisioterapia con todo un abanico de técnicas y procedimientos (Bobath, TFNP, Perfetti, rehabilitación basada en tareas y otras) para la intervención de estos pacientes, la hipoterapia (terapia con caballos) se perfila como una opción prometedora en el restablecimiento de las deficiencias de pacientes con afecciones neurológicas centrales y periféricas, donde el caballo juega un papel fundamental. El caballo es un animal por característica muy perceptivo, lo cual le permite graduar su comportamiento y conducta según la persona que lo monta, que en primera instancia lo muestra como una vía para su utilización con personas. Montar a caballo proporciona un trabajo físico, resistencia muscular, controles posturales y enderezamientos corporales para mantener equilibrio, balance, mantenimiento de posiciones y coordinación, también favorece la adquisición de habilidades cognitivas que permiten la interacción del jinete/amazona con su medio y por darse en espacios ambientales al aire libre facilitan el desarrollo de la persona en torno a todas sus esferas (personal, familiar y social). Es la hipoterapia una modalidad asistida con animales, que utiliza al caballo como medio facilitador en la rehabilitación o habilitación de deficiencias a nivel motor, senso-perceptivo, cognitivo, comunicativo y social, se aprovecha el paso, el carácter, la voluntad, la anatomía del animal y la planeación de ejercicios terapéuticos sobre este para que el fisioterapeuta los convierta en elementos fundamentales para el proceso de restablecimiento de la funcionalidad y funcionamiento del paciente (jinete/amazona).Palabras clave: Hipoterapia, rehabilitación, terapia asistida por caballos, personas con discapacidad, fisioterapia.

AbstractThe habilitation and rehabilitation are processes through which people with disabilities go through to maintain optimal results at physical, sensory, intellectual, psychological and social levels. Despite the existence of different fields of habilitation and rehabilitation in physical therapy, with a wide range of techniques and procedures (Bobath, TFNP, Perfetti, rehabilitation based on assignments and others) for the intervention of these patients, the hippotherapy (therapy with horses) is emerging as a promising option in the restoration of the deficiencies of patients suffering from central and peripheral neurological disorders, where the horse plays a fundamental role. Horses are very perceptive animals which allow them to graduate their behavior and conduct according to the person who rides them, which first shows them as a means to use with people. Horse riding provides physical work, muscle endurance, postural control and straightening body to maintain balance, positi...
