There’s nothing better than receiving messages and photos from clients sharing their success 🐴✨

Molly placed in every class at the RAF Championships on her first competition representing the RAF junior dressage team — a fantastic achievement.

And Yo-yo continuing to perform beautifully at 21 at his regional qualifier.

This is why I do what I do.

💍✨ A little life update… I’m getting married this Easter weekend! ✨💍

I’ll be away from Friday 3rd April and back to messages on Tuesday 7th April, so responses may be a little slower than usual during this time.

If you’re a current client needing a follow-up appointment, or if you haven’t yet replied to my previous message, please get in touch as soon as possible. My diary is filling up quickly due to the time off, and I’d hate for anyone to miss out or have to wait longer than necessary.

I’ll be returning to my normal working days — Monday, Friday, and Saturday — from Tuesday onwards.

Thank you so much for your patience and support 💙

I honestly can’t think of a better way to spend my day… helping horses feel their best in the warm sun 🐴☀️

This is Molly soaking up the sunshine 💛

I often get asked why some horses become so sleepy during a chiropractic treatment… and Molly is a perfect example.

As the body begins to release tension and the nervous system settles, many horses shift into a deeply relaxed state. You’ll often see soft eyes, a lowered head, and sometimes even a little doze as they let go and unwind. It’s a lovely sign that they’re comfortable and responding to the treatment.

In some cases, your horse may also be releasing months or even years’ worth of built-up misalignments and tension — something they don’t always get the chance to fully let go of. Over time, this can build up and contribute to issues further down the line, which is why these moments of release are so important.

That said, this doesn’t happen every time — horses are just like us. They can have off days, feel a bit distracted, or find it harder to switch off. But more often than not, when I return to see them again, they’re ready to relax and release.

Huge congratulations to Kezia and Mary on winning the 80cm Unaffiliated Show Jumping League – Summer Champion 2025! 🏆

A slightly belated post as this fantastic achievement happened back in December (hence the Christmas jumper!), but it’s still very much worth celebrating. Mary and Kezia did an amazing job and it’s lovely to see them both doing so well.

I’m also very proud to see Mary wearing the branded saddle cloth in the photos alongside her well-deserved rosettes and winning sash. It’s always great to support horses like Mary in staying comfortable and performing at their best.

Can’t wait to see how well they do this year! 😁

Well done again Kezia and Mary! 👏🏻

✨ Cooper & Eve – Supporting the Trick Riding Horse ✨

Cooper is a former trick riding horse, owned by Eve — a discipline that places huge demands on strength, balance, flexibility and the nervous system.

When I first assessed Cooper, Eve explained that he felt significantly restricted on the left rein, with increasing tension, anxiety and reactivity. He had previously stopped trick riding following a suspected suspensory ligament strain, which had resolved, but compensation and discomfort were clearly affecting how he was moving and feeling under saddle.

✨ The difference now ✨

Eve reports that Cooper feels freer, more balanced, and more comfortable, with improved engagement and propulsion from behind. Work has been kept sensible and progressive, focusing on in-hand exercises and light ridden work — always listening to what Cooper tells us.

💙 Why chiropractic matters for trick horses

Trick riding requires exceptional body awareness and symmetry. Chiropractic care helps:
• Improve mobility and balance
• Support recovery from past injury
• Reduce compensatory tension
• Support both physical and behavioural comfort

Cooper is now on a 3-monthly maintenance programme, helping to support his body as his workload continues and keep him feeling his best long term.

Just look at these two in action 😍
When you’re sent photos this good, choosing just one is impossible 🙈✨

✨ When should you consider a chiropractic care for your horse?

If your horse feels stiff on one rein, changes behaviour, loses balance, or feels “not quite right” — it may be time to have them assessed.

Huge credit to Eve for always putting Cooper’s wellbeing first 🐎💙

✨ Progress like this never gets old ✨

So proud of Sophie and Storm after their recent win at a show, taking 1st place in their first affiliated 80 cm showjumping class 🏆🐎 What makes this even more special is how far this partnership has come in such a short time.

When I first met Storm, Sophie had noticed some worrying behavioural changes while jumping — including rearing, backing up, and a frightening incident where he unfortunately went over backwards. With Storm only having been with Sophie for around a month, much of his history was unknown, but it was clear something wasn’t quite right.

On assessment, Storm showed muscle loss around the withers, signs consistent with possible saddle soreness, and mild discomfort through his back and hindquarters — all things that can absolutely impact confidence, performance, and behaviour under saddle.

Fast forward to now… and look at them 💫
A calmer, more comfortable horse, rebuilding strength, moving better, and most importantly — enjoying his job again. Seeing Storm confidently jumping and Sophie smiling in the ring is exactly why I love what I do.

Huge credit to Sophie for listening to her horse, seeking the right support, and giving Storm the time and care he needed. This is teamwork at its best 💙

Here’s to many more successes for this lovely pair 👏🏻🐴

Hi everyone 😊

As my practice continues to grow, I’ve been reviewing and updating my systems to keep everything clear, consistent and professional.

I’ve introduced an updated consent and payment form for my animal clients to ensure expectations are transparent for everyone and to support the smooth running of the practice.

If you currently have an equine or canine booking scheduled with me, you should receive this short form to complete before your appointment.

If you haven’t received it, please do let me know.

This update applies to animal clients only and does not affect my human chiropractic patients.

Thank you all for your continued trust and support — I truly appreciate it 💙

Love is showing up — for the people you care about, the animals who trust you, and your spine. Caring for your body and keeping your spine healthy is one of the most important foundations for a happy, fulfilling life.

When you look after yourself, you give yourself the energy and freedom to cherish and create memories with the ones you love — whether that’s heading out for a long ride, taking the dog for a walk, or simply enjoying quality time with friends and family.

Wishing you all a Valentine’s Day filled with love, connection, and healthy, happy bodies 💕

Great day working alongside farrier Bethany Harding Downland Farriers and other professionals at this CPD event. As a chiropractor, I really value working closely with others, and it was brilliant to look at soundness and asymmetry from both the farriery and chiropractic perspectives. A great reminder of how important it is to assess the horse as a whole.

Big thanks to Laura Browne, Andrew Nickalls and Andrew Bowyer 🙌🏻🐎
