Building Strength, Maintaining Condition, Improving Performance

Benefits of Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy is hugely beneficial for all animals; working or pleasure, sleepy or energetic, old or young, little or large!
Each physiotherapy session is tailored to the individual animal and their specific needs.  By using a mix of electrotherapy's, manual techniques (massage and stretches etc.) and specialist therapeutic exercises including a home exercise plan each session aims to:

  • Reduce pain and discomfort 

  • Improve mobility and joint range of motion

  • Increase comfort and everyday function 

  • Increase muscle balance 

  • Build muscle strength and condition

  • Improve circulation

  • Reduce muscle tension and tightness 

  • Aid and assist healing and recovery 

  • Enhance muscle tone  

  • Provide relaxation to nervous animals 

  • Improve performance and well-being

About Me

I have been working as s fully qualified veterinary physiotherapist since September 2023 and achieved my MScVP in July 2024 from Writtle University (part of Anglia Ruskin University). 

I am a member of the NAVP (National Association of Veterinary Physiotherapists) and for my undergraduate degree I achieved a first class BSc (hons) in Equine Science with Therapy from Hartpury University.  

​

I have always had a passion for helping and working with animals. Through my experiences over the years keeping animals strong and in top condition is hugely beneficial, further rehabilitating them correctly post injury is essential for keeping them comfortable and able to do what they love. I compete and train my own horses for eventing and have trained my own spaniel as a working gun dog. 

​

My aim as a physiotherapist is to provide top quality treatments and rehabilitation with the individual animal at the heart focusing on reducing pain, improving mobility, building strength and condition to improve overall performance and well-being of the animal.

​

As a physiotherapist I use a mixture of up to date manual techniques, electrotherapy's and specialist therapeutic exercises to help each animal recover, reduce their pain, stiffness, increase relaxation and build strength.

Contact
Esther has been treating my 12 year old Working Cocker Spaniel, Taupo, for several months with great success. Taupo has a multitude of issues including lumbosacral spondylosis, arthritis, spinal tension and muscle atrophy. The sessions with Esther involve laser therapy, PEMFT, heat treatment, muscle effleurage, and physiotherapy.After each session Taupo is much more comfortable and her movement is noticeably easier and more fluid.Esther's approach is calm, professional and reassuring. Taupo often falls asleep during her sessions, showing how relaxed she is whilst having treatment.
I highly recommend Esther.
