Thompson Therapy

The relationship between horse and human has been one of mystery and deep fascination for ages; inspiring countless myths, works of art, dreams, and more recently equine therapy programs that seek to directly reap the benefits of being close to this wonderful animal.



At Salto de fe, we recognize that the healing potential between horses and humans has more to do with the mystery and beauty of life than with scientific measurnments of success. We offer our therapeutic programs as a point of entree into a life that is self-sustaining, peaceful, centered, and conscious. We recognize that our students may come to us with a very specific set of issues they need to address or there may just be a general sense that something just isn't quite right. The development of each individual student's program, while taylored specifically to their needs, contains a foundational element of the development of self-awareness. No matter how emotionally damaged, fearful, or challenged our students may be, we believe that self-awareness is always possible. It is out of this belief that an incredibly simple and effective program was created.
To become self-aware people must see and experience their reflection in the world. This is why horses are the best therapists. They have the innate ability to reflect for us our emotional, mental, bodily and spiritual states within the first few moments of an interaction with them. Metaphors and analogies help students to identify their positive and negative behaviors. We build on healthy values and explore how to change harmful attitudes through horses. Practice in building a trusting relationship with a horse strengthens relationships with others.
Before a program is formulated and implimented, there is an evaluation between therapist and student and the student's parents (or gaurdians) to discuss history, reason for seeking therapy and intended goals.At Salto de Fe our primary objective with each and every student is to co-create a sustainable way of life that is nourishing, purposful and hopeful.
Through creativity, hope, imagination and courage we seek to dream and create a better world for the future of our children. Let Salto de fe: Equine therapeutics give your children a chance to discover themselves through the magic of horses.
