However, for people with reduced mobility, straddling can be a major obstacle. Rider lifts and mounts are a valuable aid for both the disabled rider and the equith\u00e9rapeute.<\/p>\n<p>Wall-mounted straddle lifters operate with a motorized cylinder. These systems, fitted with a hammock seat or strap, pick up the rider from his seat and lift him up to the horse&#8217;s saddle.<\/p>\n<p>The rail-mounted straddle lift, with its unique Ch\u00e2ssis-Mains system, enables the patient to be lifted from the wheelchair, maintaining the torso by exerting pressure on the thigh supports, and placed on the straddle.<\/p>\n<p>The mounts, with three or four non-slip steps, serve as a stepping stone to help the rider get on the horse.<\/p>\n<p>This easy-to-use equipment is a safe and efficient solution for saddling.<\/p>\n<p>The installation of rider lifts and mounts in equestrian centers has positive repercussions far beyond the individual experience of disabled riders. One of the benefits is a significant reduction in the risk of accidents. This has a direct impact on the work of professionals, who can concentrate on teaching and training.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, the use of this specialized equipment improves the welcome at equestrian centers. By positioning itself as an inclusive and accessible facility, the center can attract a wider audience and thus combat discrimination.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wd-negative-gap elementor-element elementor-element-2582b53 wd-section-stretch e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2582b53\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-542d7ff elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"542d7ff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Equitherapy, an ally for the personal and social development of disabled people <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wd-negative-gap elementor-element elementor-element-854d186 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"854d186\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-555641d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"555641d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-61d6193 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"61d6193\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1199\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-1199x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-23334\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-1199x800.jpg 1199w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/equitherapie-scaled.jpg 1680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1199px) 100vw, 1199px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9fbfcdc e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"9fbfcdc\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f801b5b color-scheme-inherit text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f801b5b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Equitherapy is more than just a leisure activity; it brings significant benefits by improving motor coordination, balance and muscle strength.. Maintaining correct posture on the horse involves a number of muscles, which can be particularly beneficial for people with disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, riding has a positive impact on self-confidence. The sense of accomplishment felt when mastering a new skill or overcoming a difficulty is priceless.<\/p>\n<p>Equitherapy is often practised in a group under the supervision of an equitherapist, offering many opportunities for social interaction and teamwork. Riding plays a significant role in the social integration of disabled people. Contact with the animal, other riders and instructors can help break down social barriers and reduce isolation.<\/p>\n<p>Equestrian centers also offer a variety of activities and events to encourage everyone to get involved. This can be particularly beneficial for people who are isolated because of their disability.<\/p>\n<p>Autonomy is an important aspect for disabled people. Equitherapy can play a role in improving independence: in fact, this activity helps develop skills that can be transferred to other areas of life. The coordination and balance acquired through horseback riding can help with everyday tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Riding can also help develop decision-making and problem-solving skills. The rider must assess the situation and make decisions to steer his horse or move along a course. These skills are useful in everyday life and contribute to greater autonomy.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wd-negative-gap elementor-element elementor-element-963ba3d wd-section-stretch e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"963ba3d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77559ce elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"77559ce\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Rider lifts: factors to consider for an informed choice <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wd-negative-gap elementor-element elementor-element-e882185 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"e882185\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3857070 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3857070\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-19b325d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"19b325d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/l\u9769e-cavalier-sur-rail.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-23324\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/l\u9769e-cavalier-sur-rail.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/l\u9769e-cavalier-sur-rail-400x200.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/l\u9769e-cavalier-sur-rail-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/l\u9769e-cavalier-sur-rail-700x350.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/l\u9769e-cavalier-sur-rail-150x75.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dda4241 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"dda4241\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-999a966 color-scheme-inherit text-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"999a966\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Choosing a rider lift requires careful thought. Several factors need to be taken into account:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lifting capacity: The rider lift or mount must support the user&#8217;s weight. This is crucial for personal safety.<\/li>\n<li>Easy to install and use<\/li>\n<li>Durability: Choose a model made from high-quality materials to guarantee long life (reduced maintenance and parts replacement costs).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Installation and maintenance are very important aspects in guaranteeing the safety and durability of your equipment. Here are a few points to consider:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Professional installation<\/li>\n<li>Regular safety checks: regularly check the condition of the rider lift. This includes checking moving parts, cables, hydraulic and electrical systems, and batteries.<\/li>\n<li>Preventive maintenance: Regular servicing (greasing moving parts, checking electrical connections and replacing worn parts) extends equipment life and minimizes the risk of accidents.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Finally, the cost of a rider lift can vary considerably depending on features and materials. There are several ways to finance these purchases:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Subsidies : Equestrian centers may be eligible for subsidies to make their facilities more accessible..<\/li>\n<li>Participatory financing: this financing helps raise community awareness of the importance of accessibility in sports and leisure activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Careful planning and thorough research into financing options can help you make a sound investment in this essential equipment.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wd-negative-gap elementor-element elementor-element-b76a902 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b76a902\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9ff8ac9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"9ff8ac9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/www.handicap-acces.com\/en\/equestrian-universe\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Back<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Accueil Rider lifts and mounts Horse-riding is a sporting activity that offers many physical and psychological benefits.
