Human Physiotherapy

Suttons Physiotherapy also offers physiotherapy for people. All ACPAT animal physiotherapists are chartered human physiotherapists who have undertaken further training in animal physiotherapy.

We can offer:-

  • Individual assessments
  • Rider and horse assessment together
  • Acupuncture
  • Pilates
  • Manual therapy and manipulation
  • Individualised exercise programmes
  • Execise ball therapy

It is not uncommon that riders have asymmmetries of pelvis or differences in strength that directly affect their riding and therefore their horse. Sometimes it is not necessary to have treatment, but an exercise programme can be tailored to the individual to strengthen weak muscle groups and stretch or mobilise others. This will make you more aware of your own body and the effect it has on your horse.
