Riding therapy on the lake in Kobande - therapeutic riding in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern

Riding therapy at the lake in Kobande offers therapeutic riding as a holistic support measure for children and young people. Surrounded by the tranquil nature of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the horse serves as a motivational partner and helps people to strengthen and develop their emotional, mental, physical and social skills.

Heilpädagogisches Reiten - building confidence and self-esteem

The aim of therapeutic riding is to relieve children and young people's fears and frustrations and build confidence. The sessions on horseback combine sensorimotor, sociomotor and psychomotor exercises. The three-dimensional movements of the horse train balance, coordination, posture and perception - often with a lasting sense of achievement and newfound self-esteem.

In addition to therapeutic riding, Kobande also offers other animal-assisted activities. Observing, feeding and stroking animals conveys a sense of safety and security. Encounters with animals can be used as a valuable addition to other therapeutic measures - an approach that finds a particularly atmospheric setting in the natural Baltic Sea region between Fischland-Darß-Zingst, Stralsund and Greifswald.
