We work in mental and physical capacities, and lately, we\u2019ve had more on the mental side.\u201d<br \/>\nThe Wounded Warriors Equine Therapy is designed to provide the soldiers with an outlet, a muscle training regimen and an opportunity to find much needed solace.<br \/>\n\u201cSince August, we\u2019ve had about 45 soldiers come over every week, and we tend to get the same three or four each time,\u201d she said. \u201cThe suicide rate of the soldiers who have fought for our country is so high, and that\u2019s why I always stress to them that only another soldier, another veteran will know how they feel. All I try to do is have a good, steady program for them to come enjoy the time they\u2019re away from there.\u201d<br \/>\nThe project seems to be working.<br \/>\nThe key is using horses to help assist in relieving the pain soldiers have suffered, both physical and mental.<br \/>\nA horse\u2019s gait helps the soldiers with balance and core strength and develops muscle tone and self-confidence.<br \/>\nHorse therapy relaxes those with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and provides therapy that can\u2019t be found in a hospital setting.<br \/>\n\u201cThe first time I ever went to Fort Sill and saw the passion these guys have for our country, it became our passion to give back just a little bit,\u201d said Smith, who operates Spirithorse with her husband, J.P. \u201cIt\u2019s not much of time for them to come over to our ranch for four to five hours a day once a week, but it\u2019s something we can do.\u201d<br \/>\nSpirithorse also reaches out to children with special needs, and only recently has it been working with soldiers. But people have seen the work and have recognized just how important the equine therapy is.<br \/>\nThe Wounded Warriors Equine Therapy has been adopted by the Chisholm Trail Ram Prairie Circuit Finals Rodeo committee as its charitable beneficiary.<br \/>\nThe rodeo, set for 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 18 through Saturday, Oct. 20, at the Stephens County Fair &amp; Expo Center, and will feature the top contestants in the Oklahoma-Kansas-Nebraska region.<br \/>\n\u201cThe committee took this project under their wings that this will be the charity for the circuit finals,\u201d Smith said. \u201cWe\u2019ve been able to use the county\u2019s indoor arena on the cold and windy days, so that\u2019s great. Mike Anderson has opened his arms, and the county commission has donated the building for us to use like that, so we really appreciate it.<br \/>\n\u201cI\u2019m also involved in the rodeo, and Spirithorse is sponsoring the opening each night.\u201d<br \/>\nThere fans will see a large military presence, which is important to those associated with the rodeo and the community.<br \/>\nThat\u2019s why the soldiers\u2019 involvement in the program is so special to Smith.<br \/>\n\u201c\u201dThese soldiers are having the best time,\u201d she said. \u201cThey want to learn. They want to learn about the horse and how they\u2019re used in the different events. It opens a door to these soldiers that, in a hospital, they\u2019d never have this kind of setting.\u201d<br \/>\nWhat the therapy provides goes far beyond just spending time with the animals.<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s impacted the soldiers\u2019 lives and our lives,\u201d Smith said. \u201cSome of them even come to help with our special needs children\u2019s programs. They take the time to help out. Even though they\u2019re mentally and physically beat up, they help out. They\u2019re reaching out again.\u201d<br \/>\nThat\u2019s the sign of true success.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wounded veterans are getting some much-needed physical therapy and emotional support at the Spirithorse Chisholm Trail Therapy Center in Oklahoma.
