Equine Osteopathy and Algotherapy

28/01/2026

I really enjoyed my time yesterday with Denise from Sussex Equine Massage Therapy.

2 hours were clearly not enough and we could have been talking the whole afternoon (with cocktails!).

For this reason we are meeting up again on the 20th of March at the same place so any local fellow practitioners are more than welcome to join us for a yummy lunch 🍕

So excited to finally meet Jennifer today over lunch. I think we chatted non stop for 2 hours in between mouthfuls of pizza that is ! If you’re a therapist you’ll know how it is when you meet a fellow practitioner- there is always so much to share and discuss, as much as we all love our jobs it can be tricky sometimes with no one to share ideas, thoughts or even just have a moan to!

So we thought… why not invite all equine therapists in the area too.

If you’d like to join us for lunch - no agenda, or pressure - just a relaxed, supportive space to have a chat and a laugh, share ideas, and swap news then we’d love you to join us.

We’ll be meeting again at Zizzi’s Haywards Heath on Friday 20th March at 12 so if you’d like to join drop a comment or send either of us a message.

When you doubt, you limit yourself.

To allow you to treat the greatest number of horses with confidence in your hands, because pre-treatment should not be a game of guesswork, I am offering the Palpation, joint mobilisation and assessment day again this year. The dates are on the 11th and on the 25th of April in two different locations.

It highlights the importance of a precise analysis of the horse’s physiological movements in order to provide treatment tailored to the horse while respecting its physical and mental integrity.

We often refer to knowledge, skills, experience when it comes to heal horses.
These parameters are paramount.
I personally add another ingredient to any single horse I meet and treat: LOVE.

LOVE of horses is what took me to this incredible profession. Nothing else. I was (and I still am) a big dreamer and spending most of my time with horses was a wish and quickly becomes an obsession, a vocation, a life style, an identity.

I consider every horse I treat like my own and I take great care of the horses that are entrusted to me.

So to me, every year is a horse year.

And having an open mind will allow you to question what you see or hear from others and even from me, to improve and do things differently.

Why get trained? To help you make more discerning judgments among the countless reactions, comments, opinions, and perspectives you encounter every day.

To provide you, equine professionals, with a holistic osteopathic approach that considers the horse's physical and mental well-being, giving you the tools you need to help as many cases as possible.

At the start of this year, I would like to see much more nuance in the statements of some professionals... with a living being, things are never black and white, and there is never just one way to proceed when it comes to their well-being. Some approaches are inseparable, others don't work together. Let's bring more nuance to our words and reflections in order to remain open-minded and available, always in the best interest of horses.

Jenn.

🎄I hope they know, when I was a child, they were all I wished for at this time of the year.

Merry Christmas to you all 🎄

I have tried many apps to send reports so I do everything manually which suits me so far.
Whereas all this vocabulary is like a second nature to me I do not often realise this is not the case for every horse owners which is absolutely fine.

I am currently changing the way I want to send those reports and add drawings where I could specify which techniques have been performed, which areas and what was the response.

I think for some people visuals are really helpful and help them to understand straight away where was/ were the issue(s).

I have found in my folders this picture, created in 2020 on canva for my first FB posts, which could be a great start for the new upcoming reports!

Do you also use anatomy drawings for your clients?
