Ann Linda Baldwin, PhD, is a Professor of Physiology at the University of Arizona and Director of Mind-Body-Science explains Health Benefits for the Elderly in Horse-Human Interactions.

Researchers have explored the horse/human relationship a great deal in recent years, particularly the therapeutic benefits of interacting with horses. We are pleased to present the research and findings of Ann Baldwin, Ph.D. In the webinar, Heart-to Heart Communication With Horses, she shares her insights into this unique relationship along with results and conclusions of studies she led in the fall of 2014 at Borderlands Center for Equine Assisted Services in Arizona.

The benefits of equine-assisted services have been recognized for a long time. Partnering with horses can have a major physical and emotional impact on people with a wide variety of physical disabilities, cognitive delays or emotional challenges. Granting a PATH Intl. Member Center the privilege of your trust will enable you or your loved one to reach health and wellness goals – as well as experience fun and hope – by partnering with horses.

The meaningful bonds that can exist between people and horses have been shared widely across time and culture. Many who have worked closely with horses have attested to the mutual benefits that they have witnessed, especially when the person involved is in a positive emotional state.
