Physical therapy treatments incorporating equine movement are recognized as an effective tool to treat functional mobility and balance in children with cerebral palsy (CP). To date, only a few studies examined kinematic outputs of the horses and children when mounted. In this pilot study, to better understand the effectiveness of this type of treatment, we examined the interaction between the horses and children with CP during physical therapy sessions where equine movement was utilized. Methods

Moreau NG, Bodkin AW, Bjornson K, Hobbs A, Soileau M, Lahasky K. Effectiveness of rehabilitation to improve gait speed in children with cerebral palsy: a systemic review and meta-analysis. Phys Ther. 2016;96(12):1938–54. The time (in seconds) taken to complete TUG were recorded. Alternatively, when the TUG was not feasible due to functional limitations of the participant, the time taken to complete 10mWT were recorded. These functional mobility tests were measured once before and again after HPOT sessions on days 1, 4 and 8 for a total of six tests per participant (Fig. 1).

Functional tests modestly improved over time. The children’s movements, (quantified in frequency and temporal domains) increasingly synchronized to the vertical movement of the horse’s walk, demonstrated by reduced frequency errors and increased correlation. ConclusionsA study by Uchiyama et al. [ 24] used acceleration data to evaluate the similarity between the movements of children and horse based on the hypothesis that the horse’s pelvic movement during therapeutic riding sessions are similar to the human pelvic movement while walking. Three-dimensional accelerometers collected acceleration of both horses and humans walking for a three-minute period and stride-phase data was generated from foot movements. The results showed that the frequency peaks of human walking corresponded with those of the horse walking, especially during the stride-phase. The authors concluded that riding a horse at a walk provides sensory and motor input to the rider comparable to the human activity of walking, thus offering a potential treatment option for individuals with gait abnormalities [ 24].
