Hi Claire, Have you been back on a horse yet? How did it go? Wish you all the best.

Hi... thanks for the message. I rode 3 months after my accident. Have done a lot of rehab since then and i am off skiing next week for a few days, but once back I am going to do more riding this summer. :-)

Dear Claire,

That is so great. I have a horse and can really understand that it is very good for you. I have MS and I find it helps with back pain. Hope the skiing is fun. I live near ski runs (in Switzerland) but now that so many peopple are totally pi**ed on the slopes I no longer go!!!

Take care.

Does this a similator feel like a real horse ? I was wondering how real the ride is in all gaits ?

This one only walks and trots but it feels the same as the horses gait... even feels like the hind legs are stepping under you.

I didn't realize those existed. I'm a c6 complete quad.

Yes... really good exercise and improves balance and strength
