Why REST®?
While Equine Movement Therapy is a proven tool in treating numerous disabilities…
Less than 1 % of licensed OTs, PTs, and SLPs in the US have the opportunity to implement this therapy in their practice.
Access is Extremely Limited…
As there are only 250-300 Equine Therapy Centers that employ a licensed OT, PT or SLP who incorporate Equine Motion Therapy in their treatment.
Why?
Because a horse cannot be brought into a hospital, school, therapist’s office, rehab facility or home.
REST Benefits
REST helps relax, calm and focus children with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Its unique motion allows children to self-regulate.
Children with neurobehavioral challenges can more easily perform fine motor skill tasks while seated on REST.
REST is a convenient, safe, and cost-effective therapeutic device which engages sensory, neuromuscular and cognitive systems. SLPs have reported that the need to redirect children is greatly reduced when using REST.
Unlike a balance ball or wiggle seat that requires the child to make regular postural adjustments to stay upright…
…REST moves through a series of motions that replicate the gait of a slow walking horse.
The constant vestibular input allows children to focus on any task as opposed to the creation of motion. Children who experience vestibular sensitivities prefer REST to a balance ball.
