Equine Physiotherapy
Equine physiotherapy is essential for maintaining good physical health in ridden and competition horses. The aims are to reduce discomfort, improve mobility and function, increase strength, and enhance performance. Scientifically evidenced as a highly effective complementary treatment, physiotherapy is often utilised to improve ridden performance, address behavioural issues as a result of physical discomfort, injury rehabilitation and returning to work following time off.

It was Trudies first visit for my two boys, she was very calm & knowledgeable & took her time if they were a little unsure of something. Really helpful if you ask questions too about the treatment & the reports which she sends to you detailing all areas worked on & what exercises she would like you to work on before your next visit….
I would highly recommend Trudie for anyone looking for an Equine Veterinary Physio
For anyone who knows me I am really fussy I get the right person to treat my boys, I am looking forward to her next visit which we have already booked in for …..
Thanks again

What Clients Say...
Trudie has been helping me with my horses for a couple of months now! She has helped with all my horses from a yearly with neurological problems, to my intermediate eventer. Can always see and feel such a big difference after treatments. Trudie had also helped a number of my clients horses too, who have all been happy with the work done. Always friendly, helpful and professional. With a full detailed report after each treatment. Highly recommended!
