Equine Physiotherapy

Many people think physiotherapy is only for horses that are already injured. In reality, it plays a vital role in ongoing health, performance, and prevention.

Whether you have a relaxed happy hacker or a high-level competition horse, we support horses across all disciplines by providing tailored assessment, treatment, and maintenance programs. Pleasure horses or those in light work typically benefit from a physiotherapy check-up every six months, while performance and competition horses often require more frequent sessions to stay at their best, manage workload, and minimise injury risk.
 

Horses are masters of compensation. As prey animals, they instinctively adapt their movement to avoid showing discomfort. This means subtle issues can go unnoticed for a long time - long enough for muscle imbalance, soft-tissue restrictions, and altered movement patterns to develop. If not identified early, these changes can become long-term or even performance limiting.
 

Our role is to detect these signs early, address areas of tension or dysfunction, and support each horse with a personalised rehabilitation or maintenance plan. This keeps them comfortable, balanced, and able to perform at their full potential.
