Who we are 

 

We are a unique Equine Veterinary Physiotherapy Clinic. We deliver a new concept in equine physiotherapeutic care. We offer an innovative range of services at our outstanding equestrian facility in Warwickshire. We work as part of a Veterinary-lead team to carry out a range of Physiotherapy treatments. Our wider multi-disciplinary team is made up of leading professionals in their fields, who are each as passionate about horses as we are. We pride ourselves on creating opportunities to optimise equine welfare. 

 

 

What we offer

 

We offer a range of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation services, from post-operative care to group rehabilitation clinics. Our services are delivered across a diverse caseload from equine athletes and sports performance horses, to ridden horses, happy hackers and much-loved pets. Whether your horse is recovering from a surgical procedure as an in-patient or visiting for regular treatment as an out-patient. We tailor bespoke packages to suit your individual horse’s needs. 

 

 

What is Physiotherapy?

 

Remedial Physiotherapy treatment requires delegation by a veterinary surgeon. Physiotherapy is a science-based profession using the latest evidence to provide the best care for your horse. Physiotherapists specialise in the assessment and treatment of a range of conditions including soft tissue, orthopaedic and neurological conditions. The aim of physiotherapy is to develop, maintain and restore movement and function to relieve pain and improve performance.

 

 

Why we offer it? 

 

Horses cannot tell us when they are in pain, it is often very subtle changes to their performance or behaviour that indicate something is wrong. As Physiotherapists, we are highly skilled in observing behaviour and compensatory movement patterns. We use subjective and objective assessment skills to capture detailed history from owners and trainers, together with a thorough gait assessment and physical techniques to assess for pain. This informs clinical reasoning to produce a treatment plan unique for your horse, which is scientifically validated and evidence-based for optimum recovery and return to work or play.

Testimonials 

"Gemma from Equibetter did an assessment on our mare today - she was really friendly and brilliant with our horse. She was extremely thorough - took her time to explain everything as she did it - which was really helpful. We now have an exercise regime to follow which has been put together specifically for our horse and we are positive will really help our horse overcome her issues. The service that Gemma is offering is brilliant and much needed in the equine industry".
