Well, so now that we know about the horses being able to read so much of the humans based off their sensory apparatus, right? So, a horse, just by smelling us from many, many feet away, will know your gender. Will know your mood. They can smell your mood through the hormones that we are secreting
Manon Bolliger
One of the things that I noticed, though, because I went to that to participate, to teach the humans the human part, and, yeah, if, let's say, if a human being had pain in their hip and they were, you know, straddling the saddle a certain way, it would impact the horse.
Melissa Jarzynski
When ever you are on the back of a horse, that horse is dancing with the rider, and so it's just like it takes two to tango if you have a lame horse, you know, let's take a look at your riding biomechanics.
ABOUT MELISSA JARZYNSKI:
Melissa Jean Jarzynski, MSPT, HPCS, ESMLH, excels in integrating physical therapy with equine-assisted practices, particularly emphasizing trauma-informed care. As the owner of Happy Trotters, Melissa Jean PT and Stable Friendships Foundation and with over 19 years of expertise, Melissa is a board-certified Hippotherapy Clinical Specialist and is certified with PATH Int. and EAGALA.
Her pioneering spirit is most evident in her program, "Finding Peace in the Paddockâ„¢". This groundbreaking work focuses on the interplay between human and horse heart rates, revealing significant benefits for those dealing with trauma, stress, and chronic pain. Her research in this area, though preliminary, has already begun to illuminate the profound effects of equine-assisted therapy. It's not just about physical healing; Melissa's work highlights the deep emotional and psychological connections that can be fostered between humans and horses, offering a new dimension to trauma-informed care. This unique blend of therapy and equine interaction is a testament to her innovative approach in enhancing holistic well-being.
Core purpose/passion: My core purpose/mission is to continue helping humans with the help of horses, but never at the expense of the horses.
