Q: How do I know if my horse needs a physiotherapist?

Common signs include reluctance to go forward, toe dragging or tripping, knocking poles or refusing, difficulty striking off on a canter lead, asymmetry or stiffness on one rein, sensitivity to grooming or tacking up, and a drop in performance or behaviour change under saddle. A physiotherapy assessment identifies the cause and sets a treatment plan.

The approach

Physiotherapy grounded in biomechanics and evidence, delivered with the calm, hands-on care that comes from a lifetime around horses. No two horses move the same way, so no two plans are the same.

Knowing the signs

How do I know if my horse needs a physiotherapist?

Horses rarely tell us in obvious ways. Most owners notice something small first: a change under saddle, a loss of sparkle, a job that used to be easy becoming hard. These are the signs worth an assessment.

01Reluctance to go forward, or a loss of impulsion and power

03Difficulty striking off or holding a canter lead
04Stiffness or asymmetry on one rein, or hollowing through the back
05Sensitivity when grooming, tacking up or mounting

Grace has a lovely, gentle and kind way with the horses and she’s very knowledgeable. It was interesting to watch my mare react to the treatment, and she felt a lot better to ride afterwards. Highly recommend.
