Esta atividade exige a participação do corpo inteiro, trabalhando o praticante de forma global, sendo o cavalo utilizado como método terapêutico que contribuirá para o desenvolvimento do equilíbrio, tônus, força muscular, a conscientização do próprio corpo, o aperfeiçoamento de coordenação motora, atenção, autoconfiança, autoestima e a qualidade de vida. O idoso na Equoterapia irá utilizar o cavalo como um mediador terapêutico no tratamento de diversas patologias proporcionando bem-estar e consequente melhora da qualidade de vida, sendo um tratamento prazeroso, pois se foge de consultórios e ambientes fechados. Além disso, o movimento tridimensional, rítmico e balançante do cavalo irá estimular o sistema vestibular, a melhora da consciência espaçotemporal, a concentração, o equilíbrio e a consolidação da segurança gravitacional, deixando o idoso menos vulnerável a quedas e a incapacidades funcionais. Sendo assim, esse artigo de revisão de literatura teve como objetivo verificar os efeitos e mostrar a importância da prática da Equoterapia, a fim de obter melhor qualidade de vida e longevidade.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2011-09-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/693510.23925/2176-901X.2011v14i1p181-193Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 14 n. 1 (2011); 181-1932176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/6935/5027Wibelinger, Lia Marada Silveira, Michele Marinhoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-12-13T18:58:10Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/6935Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2022-12-13T18:58:10Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false |
