�Suspensory injuries
�Lameness, front or hind
�Foot imbalance
�Tendon Injuries
�Hock issues
�Stifle issues
�Bringing your horse back into work after a period of rest, they would usually benefit initially from ground work then walk /trot work.
�Maze and pole work is proven to improve proprioception and core strength whilst activating greater range of limb action.
�Work is carried out in straight lines to develop straightness; something all elite riders work towards achieving with their equine athletes.
� Let us do the ground work and slow work you intend to do when starting back up for the fast approaching season. Slow and steady wins the race, and may just keep your horse sounder for longer!
�We aim to increase range of movement, proprioception and improve posture with core strength.
�Bringing your horse back into work is an extraordinary commitment and all horses are different, one routine does not necessarily work for another. If this is following an injury or surgery, once diagnosed and treated, the right rehabilitation is critical in ensuring that you have a horse to ride at the end of it.
�Most insurance companies will cover all or some of the costs for rehabilitation following injury or surgery.
🌨The cold weather and dark nights put strain on already tough requirements, sending your horse to us will alleviate the stress and allow you to take your horse back when strength is improved and you can have a little more fun!
�All of the above is focused on maximising the potential of your horse returning to work. We have excellent facilities and will tailor a programme with you to work towards what you want to achieve.
�20 years experience with horses with more recent years focused on rehabilitation. I am completing a masters degree in equine science so I am involved with some of the best therapists and researchers in the U. K.

The translation is a little hard to follow at times, but this is an excellent read! 🙏 🙌

No foot, no horse!
Fully support this! Check the credentials of the people who you are asking to treat your horses.
As research develops, we are learning more about the effects of training aids on our equine friends. If negative effects can be recorded in sound horses with no known pathologies, imagine the effect on horses rehabbing from injuries with abnormal gaits and pain.
Don’t overdo it, little and often is far better for our equine friends 🧡
Foot balance is everything! 🧡

Fantastic article about the importance of posture!
Over the last 12 months I took a step back to complete my Masters Degree so I apologise for being so quiet, but I’m very glad that I did! I focussed my research on the application of gadgets and training aids within rehabilitation as it’s something I feel particularly strongly about. After all, the success of rehabilitation heavily relies on the appropriate use of training aids, just as much as the avoidance of them. My hard work paid off and we are currently going through th...e channels of publishing the research I carried out. Additionally, my paper is being coauthored by one of the most highly regarded equine scientists!! How cool is that??!
So, this post is to reopen the doors for business but now with a lot more to offer!
I am an equine rehabilitation specialist and consultant with a scientific knowledge base and particular interests in: 🔹Lameness 🔹Foot balance 🔹The effects of conformation 🔹Massage therapy 🔹Ground work exercise 🔹Rider Performance 🔹Equine and Rider Biomechanics
My approach is very much focussed on applying the right rehabilitation methods to each individual horse, and then teaching owners how to rehab their horses properly.
🐎 Consultations include assessment of movement and conformation, and to identify muscle tightness and/or pain anywhere in the body. Depending on the horse, rehab plans are written and then followed up.
🐎 Coaching is available for ridden rehabilitation, with the aim of giving you an all over picture of how to improve your horses posture and plenty of tips to help target and improve your horses weak points.
🐎 Furthermore, I have a knowledge base in Rider Biomechanics, so coaching will also help to improve your posture and performance, as well as helping your equine friend.
🐎 Available for individual or group assessments, group bookings of 4 or more will benefit from a discounted rate.
🐎 Available for consultation and coaching clinics, talks and demos.
I am Cheshire based, but do travel further afield upon request. Please contact me to book, or if you have any questions.
I would like to ask anyone who has used my services in the past, if you could kindly leave a review or testimonial it would be appreciated! ❤️
