Before Treatment

Before any treatment can be carried out veterinary permission must be sought (please see Legal Notice).

On arrival for our first session I require a full case history detailing:

• any previous veterinary issues
• type and level of work
• dentistry checks
• saddle fitting specifics (for equines)

I will assess your animal while it is standing still and identify any visible muscular asymmetries. Next I will observe your animal's gait in straight lines and on circles, with horses being lunged and/or ridden if appropriate.

Watching your animal closely thorough its paces helps me form a complete picture of your animal's lifestyle and, conformation - helping me to understand why problems may be occurring and allowing me to recommend a specific therapy programme.
