Unfortunately, winter is here…

It’s cold and dark now, and while we just don’t like the idea, the changing seasons can have a profound effect on our animals musculoskeletal system.

- Less blood flow to extremities and muscles, prolonging recovery time and increasing risk of injury.
- Joints stiffen up and may be sore.
- Shivering overuses muscles, making them fatigue quicker and leading to muscle pain.
- Soft tissues are less elastic and are not as flexible.
- Deep muddy ground can pull tendons, or hard frosty ground can increase risk of concussion injury on feet.

As our attention turns to winter championships and activities, a way to combat these effects is to look to physiotherapeutic techniques such as massage therapy, laser and electrotherapies, and targeted exercise.

Following her TPLO surgery she has undergone physio, hydrotherapy and laser therapy to help her regain strength after her operation.

We have some £5 discount vouchers for the first appointment with Hannah so please chat with someone on reception or our vets to see if your pup or cat could benefit from some supportive therapy.

✨ New Treatment Now Available ✨

I’m pleased to now offer equine kinesiology taping, either as a taping only session and used in conjunction with physiotherapy treatment.

🤔How does it work?🤔
The pull on the tape act on sensory nerves on the skin to increase proprioception, aka body awareness, which helps correct posture and gait abnormalities. This is especially useful for training abdominal and hindlimb engagement.
By stimulating sensory nerves, pain signals are blocked at a spinal cord level. It’s known as the pain gate theory, and it’s exactly the same mechanism by which massage helps to reduce pain.
Finally, the tape lifts the skin and underlying fascia to increase blood flow and lymphatic drainage. Helping to promote healthy soft tissues.

💪 Conditions that benefit💪
- Pain and inflammation
- Poor lymph/ blood flow
- Muscle and soft tissue tension
- Correcting compensatory posture and gait mechanisms

What to expect:
- Kinesiology tape can be recommended either during a physiotherapy session, or as a taping-only session.
- The session will take up to 1 hour (but typically much less - as only a few strips can be applied at any one time).
- Tape often stays on for 5 days. You can continue to train your horse, but you cannot compete, jump, or use tack which interferes with the tape (e.g. riding when tape has been applied to the back) until it is off. It can be gently removed using baby oil.
- The horse will need to be walked and trotted up before and after every application of tape.
- Horses will need to be brushed clean and dry. Please don’t bath or use showsheen in the few days before a physio or tape session.
- Taping as part of a physiotherapy treatment: £10
- Taping only sessions: £40*

* The horse must have a physiotherapy session prior to a taping only session. This can be from a referral from another therapist*

Happy
I am sharing my most recent TikTok to highlight why I love the job I do.

To be a part of someone’s journey, which could be recovering from surgery or injury, or improving their performance, is a hugely rewarding experience.

Finding the cause of a problem in an animal which doesn’t speak is difficult, but listening to very subtle changes in the body is very calming and enlightening.

I’m so pleased to announce that after a tough few months recovering from abdominal surgery, I will return to veterinary physiotherapy for horses and small animals.

To celebrate graduating from my own physiotherapy program and the Grand Reopening of Delta VP, I am offering £5 off all appointments during September!

What you can expect during a session:
- Full static (standing), dynamic (movement), muscle palpation and joint range of motion assessment.
- Manual therapies such as massage, fascia release, trigger point therapy, acupressure, stretching and joint mobilisation.
- Laser therapy, pulsed electromagnetic therapy, Heat therapy using the epionyuk system
- Full report including assessment and treatment notes, and exercise prescription with how-to videos using the Equicantis web application.

It’s a great time to consider physiotherapy for your animals to help recover after a busy summer season, or to prepare them for winter competitions.

Apologies for the radio silence recently, it’s with a heavy heart that I must inform you all that Delta VP is taking a break for at least 6 weeks, as I have needed emergency surgery last week. Anyone with booked appointments have already been contacted to postpone. Due to the nature of the surgery I cannot offer an accurate return date.

Small animals treated at Farnham Veterinary Hospital are unaffected as a locum physiotherapist is with us till I can return.

Thank you to everyone who has already offered their well wishes. I hope to be back soon!

Laser therapy for inflammatory conditions.

Laser therapy is the use of amplified red or infrared light to increase mitochondria activity within the cells of the target tissue. This results in a healthier, more efficient tissue. This reduces the need for pro-inflammatory marker production, therefore reducing inflammation.

Here, I am using laser therapy to help treat cellulitis - a painful condition which causes excessive swelling and inflammation. Laser can be used to treat or prevent any inflammatory conditions such as osteoarthritis, tendon/ligament damage, muscle injury, and support post-surgery recovery.

This is just one of the many benefits laser has to offer. To find out more about my physiotherapeutic techniques, contact me on:

Thank you for the review!

After a busy weekend going to her first one day event 😱 Inka needed a bit of physiotherapy just to work out any soreness she is experiencing.

She’s clearly feeling amazing running around the field throwing some awesome shapes. Great to see her looking so flexible!
