equine veterinary physiotherapy
Whether your horse is recovering from injury, managing an ongoing condition, returning to work or wants to improve their performance, we are here to help.
Comprehensive Assessment
Every appointment begins with a thorough assessment, including history-taking, static and dynamic gait analysis, and palpation and joint evaluation, allowing us to identify the underlying cause of dysfunction and any compensatory changes.
Evidence-based Treatment
Our treatment plans are guided by current evidence and the latest research. We use a combination of manual therapy, laser therapy, and targeted exercise to reduce pain, restore movement, optimise recovery and enhance performance.
Individual Treatment Plans
No two horses are the same. Every treatment plan is personalised to your horse's individual needs. With regular reassessments to monitor progress and adapt treatment to ensure the best possible outcomes for you and your horse.
the benefits of equine physiotherapy
Equine physiotherapy can support horses of all ages and disciplines, from leisure horses and older companions to competition horses returning to work.

Physiotherapy can help reduce pain, stiffness and muscular tension, allowing your horse to move more comfortably and confidently.

Following injury, surgery or a period of rest, physiotherapy provides a progressive rehabilitation plan to help your horse return to activity safely.
Better posture and way of going
Treatment can help address restriction, weakness and compensatory movement patterns that may affect posture, stride quality and ridden performance.
Enhanced performance
By improving mobility, strength and body awareness, physiotherapy can help your horse perform more efficiently and comfortably.
Reduced risk of recurring problems & injury
Regular assessment can identify areas of weakness, tension or compensation early, helping to reduce the likelihood of further injury.
