Taking Therapy Beyond The Clinic
Nature’s Edge Therapy Center provides the highest quality of intensive rehabilitation by qualified and licensed staff.
Advancing Independence With Nature-Based Therapy
Nature’s Edge Therapy Center delivers medically prescribed speech therapy on a 65-acre therapy ranch in Northwest Wisconsin. Our evidence-based outpatient services and intensive on-site programs at Diane’s House blend clinical expertise with the restorative setting of nature to enhance communication, motor skills, and independence.
Licensed therapists employ proven treatment methods alongside innovative, nature-based interventions, including hippotherapy, a treatment strategy that engages the multidimensional movement of the horse to promote neurological and physical function. Additional interventions such as horticulture therapy and animal-assisted therapy further support functional gains in speech, behavior, and daily living. At Nature’s Edge, therapy is more than a session, it’s a pathway to lasting progress.
