Mr Grey joining me for breakfast for his first treatment!
Mr Grey had a lameness issue which is now resolved thanks to the brilliant work from the team at The Liphook Equine Hospital. He is now coming back into work and needed a little help from me to get him feeling comfortable so he can work correctly in order to build his muscles back up 💪🏻

Absolutely fantastic to finally see Woody & Clara enjoying life. Clara has worked so hard on Woody’s rehab, there’s been a few setbacks here and there but nothing has stopped them! Now they’re happily out hacking and riding round the school, just in time for summer!☀️🐎

I treated the lovely little Dessie a couple of weeks ago, him and his rider Ben get up to all sorts together, but their favourite activity is jumping! Unfortunately Dessie had started occasionally stopping at jumps so I went out to see if we could get him more comfortable. After a good massage, some stretches and TENS treatment Dessie was feeling much better! The following weekend they went out cross country training and they both flew around, absolutely lovely to see that the hard work pays off😁

Lovely weekend treating some of my regular clients, although did have to disrupt a few from their morning snoozes😴 Don’t think they minded too much after having a lovely massage to release the tension from the long winter they’ve had!

It’s National Racehorse Week! 🐎
Thoroughbreds are such versatile horses with big personalities. They can turn their hoof to almost anything after racing and always live the life of luxury!
Here are just a few of my clients & friends who have given their thoroughbreds new careers after racing!

Lovely Lily & Kelle a few weekends ago at the Hope Show where they won ridden champion, putting them through to the supreme championship winning best ridden horse with thoroughbred blood!
Lily gets regular treatments to keep her fit and comfortable, as you can see she seems to enjoy them!

Before and after!
Clara has been doing an amazing job with Woody over these last few months. His condition has improved greatly and he is much more comfortable and happy.
Building strength over his top line and doing consistent stretching and long & low exercises has began to increase the spaces between his dorsal spinous processes, which we have seen through X-rays.
There’s still a little way to go but the plan to get Clara and Woody out hacking this summer is looking very promising! 🙌🏻

Even polo ponies do pole work! 🐎

Raised trotting poles are a great example of a simple exercise that can help horses with different needs and goals. Here I laid out 4 trotting poles and raised them incrementally as the ponies got used to going over them.

Freya, in the purple saddle pad, is recovering from a carpal joint sprain so we are working on strengthening that leg up by asking her to pick up higher to get over the poles, which will not only strengthen but also increase her range of motion as she is a little stiff through her legs and shoulders.

Lana in the blue saddle pad is a very speedy little pony and has a tendency to rush, so we’re asking her to slow down, pick her legs up and use her core whilst maintaining a consistent pace over all the poles.

⭐️I am very excited to announce Carys Berry Veterinary Physiotherapy’s first sponsored rider!⭐️
Kelle has been riding since she was 4 and working in the equine industry for over 25 years. At the moment Kelle’s main discipline is showing, however she also enjoys dressage, eventing, carriage driving, team chasing and side saddle. Currently Kelle is working as a nurse at Towcester Equine Vets and also rides and coaches at various yards around the midlands.
I have the pleasure of treating her horses Manni, Ella & Lily who she mainly uses for showing and eventing. Manni has recently qualified for the semi finals of the London International Horse show and we’re hoping to get him to Horse of the Year Show in 2023!
Watch this space to follow the diverse career of Kelle and her wonderful horses!

Teamwork makes the dream work! 💪🏻
Lovely Woody is cracking on with his rehab whilst also receiving regular physiotherapy treatment so his rehab plan will have the optimum effect on his comfort and performance.
Hopefully we’ll have Clara hacking him out for the summer! ☀️

It’s that time of year where we all have to be aware of laminitis!🌱
Please read below for more information!

Holly Gimmler, one of our newest equine vets, has written this short article looking into the causes, diagnosis and treatment of laminitis as well as the implications for ongoing management once a horse has suffered from this common condition.

Client feedback Thursday!
I started treating Lana a year ago when she was just 3, she came straight off the track and is now about to start her first grass season of polo! Lana’s first few sessions she was quite fidgety and not quite sure what I was doing, however now she really enjoys her treatments and can even do her baited stretches on her own as Alex has been very consistent with them!

Good old Tank enjoying his recovery massage yesterday evening!
Tank was unfortunately in an accident last weekend where the lorry he was travelling in turned over. Thankfully everyone walked away unscathed besides a few nicks and bruises, and the horses managed to right themselves in the lorry before being rescued by the firefighters.
Tank got a head to tail massage and stretch to release any tension and soreness and is now ready to go out in the field and feel his best! He thoroughly enjoyed this pamper session and was even dozing off by the end!

Happy Easter to all my lovely friends, family and clients! Hope everyone is enjoying the sun and indulging in lots of chocolate!

The lovely Lana enjoyed her physio session today! We started with a thorough assessment and then moved onto massage and stretches, and finished with some TENS. As Lana is only 4 she can get quite fidgety near the end of a session so I find using the TENS to finish off releases any left over tension and allows her to relax for 15 minutes at the end of her treatment. As you can see she was feeling very happy afterwards!

Client feedback Thursday!
A lovely review from one of my regular clients. Tank is a keen polo pony who also dabbles in a bit of dressage and jumping on the side! Regular physio and working closely with saddlers and vets keeps him in tiptop shape for his busy lifestyle.

Pilates is incredibly beneficial for us horse owners!

Not only will it help to relieve any stiffness and tension you have from riding and doing all your yard duties, but it will help to improve your posture & core strength which in turn will greatly benefit your riding!

You might be surprised at what Pilates can do for you! Here are 5 benefits you might not have thought of:

🌟 It can help relieve tension in your shoulders, back and legs
🌟 It improves your posture and can even change your shape
🌟 It's a great way to cross train and prevent injury
🌟 It promotes mindfulness and body awareness
🌟 It only needs a mat!

We have a few spaces available to join our physio-led classes in our own on-site Pilates studio in the heart of Rugby. Why don’t you get in touch to book a spot and try it for yourself!

Who else is ready for longer days and brighter skies!? ☀️

Don’t forget at this time of year your horses can become a bit stiff, especially if they’re kept in stables, and are more prone to dropping some condition. Regular physiotherapy treatment can help your horse to feel it’s best all year round!

Last week I went out with the brilliant Towcester Equine Vets to scope my client Woody.

Woody is currently undergoing a rehab plan for kissing spines, with steroid medication and regular physiotherapy treatment he is beginning to feel much more comfortable.

However due to the chronic discomfort in his back he has unfortunately also developed ulcers. Following a scope woody underwent 4 weeks of ulcer medication. The re-scope has shown that the treatment has been a success!

Woody will now continue with conservative ulcer managment and can crack on with his rehab plan with Clara knowing he’s 100% comfortable. As you can see he’s feeling much better!
