Therapeutic Riding
Sopris Therapy Services (STS) is an innovative outpatient treatment
facility offering Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, cognitive
retraining, Speech Therapy and Therapeutic Riding. We offer year-round
rehabilitation services, and are conveniently located in Carbondale,
Colorado.
The outcome of our program is to increase our patients' function
in terms of gross and fine motor skills and speech/language production.
We promote skills for independent living and create an atmosphere
that encourages physical and emotional well-being. Because we use
horses for therapy, we hope to improve our patients' outlook on
life simply because they are out in the sunshine having fun while
realizing their therapy goals!
We
work with diligence, integrity and compassion for our clients.
They are the reason we exist.
If
you have never observed a session of therapy at STS, we heartily
encourage and invite you to do so. You can't help but be moved
by the courage, love, and generosity of spirit that flows from
our patients with special needs - especially when they are on
a horse...
