A 30-minute hippotherapy session is typical. The length of a course of hippotherapy is determined by a variety of factors, including the therapist's initial assessment, the client's goals, and subsequent reviews at regular intervals. Some individuals may just require a few sessions before they are ready to join a therapeutic riding group. Others may like riding and have a few hippotherapy sessions now and again to work on certain areas. Hippotherapy could be a regular treatment to supplement other therapies for some people. Depending on the patient's wishes and capacity, hippotherapy can serve as a bridge to riding, vaulting, and carriage driving.
