We offer mobile services to allow your horse to be treated on the yard where they may feel more comfortable. Due to the demands of ridden work, routine checks allow the detection and treatment of any issues before they become a major problem. Each appointment will start with an assessment, followed by physiotherapeutic treatment. Exercises will be given to you to complete between sessions to optimise beneficial effects. Each element will be demonstrated to you to ensure you are confident with it. Dependent on the case, time between appointments may vary from weekly, fortnightly or monthly which will be determined during the first visit<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
