Therapy Dogs

Spending time with and petting a dog has been shown to do wonders in boosting one’s mood, relieving stress, and reducing blood pressure. Whether it’s the next class or the next exam, college students are constantly on the go. Allowing them to take a study break with some cute pups can be just what students need to get through the semester.

Equine Therapy

During equine therapy, students spend time grooming, feeding, leading and sometimes riding a horse while connecting with their friends and equine therapy staff. This is part of our wellbeing program at Salem.
