I am a fully accredited Physiokey Equine Practioner and a member of the International Institute of Complimentary Therapies. CT Physiokey is fully insured with both Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance. I have attended a 3 day Sharon May Davis horse dissection course in Victoria, April 2022. Currently located in the greater Strathalbyn area, providing Physiokey treatments for horse
s, dogs, and other animals. Servicing the Adelaide Hills and beyond, travelling to you, or in house treatments. Growing up around horses, riding and competing in various disciplines, in recent years campdrafting, training endurance rides, team penning, showing etc. I am passionate about animals and horses have always been a central part of my life. Physiokey is a biofeedback neurostimulation treatment assisting with the relief of pain and muscle injury, soreness and anxiety. An electrical impulse signal mimicking the natural nerve signal is sent to the nerves helping to restore the natural nerve function, neural pathways and can reduce pain and inflammation as well as reduce recovery time from injury. Physiokey is shown to help release neuropeptides, serotonin and endorphins, increase blood flow and assist with relaxation, removal of lactic acid and assist recovery. It has been found to greatly reduce anxiety in animals. It is also used for, (but not limited to) :-
- Treating new and old acute and chronic injuries.

- Helping to reduce anxiety and aggression in a tense or anxious animal to assist them to relax. Serotonin is the key hormone that stabilizes our mood, feelings of well-being, and happiness. This hormone impacts your entire body. It enables brain cells and other nervous system cells to communicate with each other. Serotonin also helps with sleeping, eating, and digestion.
- Increasing blood flow and the release of endorphins. ( endorphins, known as the body's natural “feel-good” chemicals, endorphins stimulate feelings of pleasure, well-being, and pain relief, making them an essential component in a balanced, happy life. Endorphins are neurotransmitters secreted in response to stress and pain.) Benefit of Increasing blood flow.- maintain healthy blood and oxygen flow throughout the body, allowing your lungs, heart and muscles to function properly and efficiently. You'll fight off and avoid potential diseases and sicknesses. With good circulation, the white blood cells in your immune system will be transported around the body as needed.
