This study is aimed to elucidate the significance of equine-assisted therapy and education in patients with stroke, ASD, and CP through scientific evaluation on their physical and mental changes.
Efficacy
The modified Rankin Scale(mRS), Gross Motor Function Classification System(GMFCS), and Childhood Autism Rating Scale(CARS) are used for outcomes in stroke, cerebral palsy, and autism spectrum disease(ASD), respectively.
Measurements: 10m-walking test and timed up and go test are performed for stroke and cerebral palsy patients, respectively. In the walking test, the gait exercise ability and movement of each part of body are analyzed by two-dimensional image analysis. In the TUG test, the performance time while a participant stands up from a chair and sits down accompanied by 3m-walk turn is measured.
GMFM is used for cerebral palsy, while ABC is for ASD. 1n some patients with stroke the stabilometry test is performed.

Basically patients over 2 years after onset
ASD
Hippotherapy group: patients aging 6 to <16 years, who were diagnosed as autism spectrum disease by medical institutes. These patients are assigned for horse-riding program.
Control group: patients with the same ages as the hippotherapy group, who were diagnosed as autism spectrum disease by medical institutes. These patients are subjected to regular therapeutic program without horse-riding.
CP
Patients aging 6 to <30 years, who were diagnosed as cerebral palsy by medical institutes. These patients are assigned for horse-riding program.
1.Patients with hypertension, epilepsy, arrhythmia, osteoporosis and severe scoliosis
2.Patients with severe instability of the head
3.Patients with surgical treatments of joints and/or tendons
4.Patients who once experienced horse-riding lessons
5.Patients who have been received other special treatments
6.Patients who were subjected to change the design of treatment program during participation

Stroke and cerebral palsy cases
Gait performance tests: The increase in stride length and the shortening of performance time in Timed-up and Go test were observed in patients with riding programs.
Development disability cases
ABC-J scores in subscales of excitatory, lethargy and hyperactivity were significantly changed during the observation period in participants with riding programs.
