But at a gentle walk, I have to pay attention to my posture and I have found that being able to set back and the motion (rythem) of the horse is very relaxing....besides Monty is well (broad) so it also 'stretches' my hips and again makes my back just feel better. I can see why using horses for special needs, head injuries, etc. is not only good for the body, it is great for the soul.
You will have to see if riding gives you more problems, but like I said, if you start with just a nice walk, you might find it is really helpful.
