Publisher's Synopsis
Horses and Human Health shows a simple and safe system for bringing horses and humans together in a therapeutic way. It is hoped it will be of great value to those starting, or taking things further, in this field. The intention of Dr Celia Grummitt in writing this book is to give people an understanding of how horses affect human health in a positive way and what horses can offer when used therapeutically. "The horse is an interactive being and brings an entire new dimension to the therapeutic intervention". This book is designed to provide the glue between a variety of human focussed skills and sound equine knowledge, so that they can be used together effectively, professionally and safely. The glue is essential if the two areas are to be used in a complementary and symbiotic manner. This is how horses are used to assist humans.
