About Chariot Innovations
At Chariot Innovations Inc., we believe movement is key to unlocking human potential and are driven by a passion for movement, hope and improving quality of life. Our research-driven company was founded in 2014 by Dr. Brian Garner, a bio-mechanical engineer, as part of Baylor University’s Lab-to Market (L2M) Initiative.
We are a research-driven company that believes that God created the human body to move, and so are passionate about transforming lives through movement solutions. The company’s name, “Chariot,” is inspired by the Bible passage 2 Kings 6:17, which symbolizes provision, protection, and movement that carries people toward freedom and fullness of life.
Our proprietary system, the MiraColt™, utilizes a bio-mechanical motion platform to replicate the rhythmic gait of a horse. This technology is a clinical intervention that provides a controlled and repeatable therapeutic experience, mirroring the well-documented benefits of equine therapy (hippotherapy and therapeutic horseback-riding).
It brings these benefits into a safe, accessible, and controlled environment, serving as a vital intervention for those with neurological conditions and disabilities or seniors addressing fall risk.
The MiraColt™ is designed to enhance motor function, core strength, and neurological responsiveness, contributing to significant improvements in patient outcomes and empowering individuals with improved quality of life and greater independence.
The MiraColt™ offers the benefits of Therapeutic Horse Riding to those who might not be able to access or ride a live horse.
Motion. Hope. Life.
After experiencing the positive effects of horse motion on patients undergoing therapeutic horse riding, such as hippotherapy and equine assisted therapy, Dr. Brian Garner embarked on research and development of the MiraColt.
His inspiration was fueled by the need to tackle the challenges faced by individuals who were unable to ride live horses but could still benefit from the therapy they offered. The birth of the MiraColt was a direct result of this inspiration.
