With 7 in 100 children struggling with concentrating in class or turning in homework on time, you probably either live with someone dealing with ADHD or know someone who is dealing with it. There has been discussion, debate and many theories about what causes ADHD and new information shows that ADHD is linked to 5 areas of the brain.
A massive study conducted at Radboud University Medical
Center in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, provided interesting information. The results, published in Lancet Psychiatry could help explains some of the disorder’s symptoms. As this article points out, 2 areas of the brain are found to be smaller in those with ADHD.
There are many ways to treat ADHD and Equine Therapy is one 
of them. Work with horses can increase focus and decrease impulsivity. We can work on self-soothing/calming skills. We can improve problem solving skills and self-confidence, which sadly can be lacking for kids that struggle. Additionally, we can be a great sounding board for parents/care givers who need to be heard and are looking for new ideas 
on how to address issues at home.
If you or someone you know is having a hard time dealing with the issues of ADHD, we might be able to help. Call or email and 
we will schedule a visit. You can tour the ranch, meet the horses, tell us more about what you are living with and learn more about how work with horses might be able to make a difference.
