In hippotherapy, patients are usually first accustomed to the animals and then placed safely on the horse under supervision. The patients are led at walking pace, and the horse's movement has a positive effect on balance, motor skills, and movement patterns. 

Robotic hippotherapy brings these benefits directly to patients undergoing rehabilitation treatment in hospitals, rehabilitation, and physical therapy centers - thanks to innovative technology. 

"What impresses me most about hirob is its fast transfer and setup time. hirob can be adapted to the patient very quickly and accurately. We can start therapy at an early stage because the speed and range of motion can be adjusted to the patient's needs." Dr. Andreas Mayr, Head of Therapy at Landeskrankenhaus Hochzirl.
