about Alpaca Therapeutic Group Sessions
The best therapy ever… Its our 2nd time with K2Alpacas and definitely not the last one!
The trek was lovely and one of my boys has autism and really enjoyed the experience and was totally relaxed and loved walking and talking to Cooper. They are lovely relaxing animals and we got to take lots of pictures with them.
Alpaca Therapeutic Group Sessions information
While technology has had a huge impact on our lives and is beneficial in so many ways, it’s no mistake that so many people have pets. Nature has through the ages grounded us and provides us with a natural de-stressor in today’s frenetic world. Alpacas who by nature are friendly and loveable are found to be therapeutic in multiple ways through by having hands on with these gentle animals. You can feel their soft luxurious fiber listen to them hum and look into their beautiful brown eyes. The benefits of alpacas as therapy animals include: Exercise Sense of wellbeing Stress reduction Emotional wellbeing Peace and tranquility. I find sitting in a field with my alpacas very therapeutic after a stressful day and I know many owners do the same.
For group bookings maximum number of people participating is up to 6
Group therapy session duration is 90 minutes.
We ask for 50% deposit to secure your booking and then full payment is needed 2 weeks before the date of the last therapy session.
