Physiotherapy for your horse

At Sentient Physiotherapy, we offer initial or review equine assessments

to ensure your horse is on the path to optimal health. Your appointment will

include an assessment of:

​

  • Gait

  • Functional movement 

  • Joint range of movement

  • Muscle palpation

​

This will allow us to identify any issues or injuries your horse

may be experiencing.  Following the assessment, an individualised

treatment plan tailored to your horse's needs will be created. This may

include different types of manual therapy, such as joint mobilisations,

myofascial techniques and dry needling. Additionally, your horse will be prescribed an exercise

program which will assist in maintaining:

​

  • Flexibility

  • Strength

  • Stability

  • Proprioception
