Transforming Lives Through Equine Therapy

Welcome to Equinoterapia SMA

At Equinoterapia SMA, we provide equine-assisted therapy in a safe, nurturing environment where children with physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges can grow in confidence, independence, and well-being.

Our gentle, well-trained horses help young riders improve balance, coordination, and self-esteem—while experiencing the pure joy of connecting with these remarkable animals in the peaceful countryside.

Founded in 2023 in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico, Equinoterapia SMA, A.C. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting children with special needs in our community through the transformative power of the human–horse bond.

Our mission is to empower children with special needs through compassionate, inclusive equine therapy programs that inspire growth, confidence, and a better quality of life.

How It Works

How Equine Therapy Works

Equine therapy harnesses the gentle nature and rhythmic movement of horses to promote physical, emotional, and neurological growth. As a horse walks, its natural gait closely mirrors the motion of the human pelvis, helping improve balance, posture, and coordination—particularly for children with motor or neurological challenges.

Beyond the physical benefits, time spent with horses can reduce stress, foster trust, and build confidence, communication, and social skills. This evidence-based approach engages both body and mind, creating a unique therapeutic connection with one of nature’s most intuitive and responsive animals.
