Based in Ayrshire, she provides hands-on manual therapies and electrotherapy treatments such as NEMS, PEMF, and ultrasound, tailored to the individual needs of each horse.
Working with a multidisciplinary team that includes vets, farriers, dentists and saddle fitters, Rachel takes a holistic approach, assessing the entire horse to ensure the best possible care.
With a Level 6 Diploma in Equine Physiotherapy, IAAT membership, and RAMP registration, she meets the highest industry standards.
What sets Rachel apart is her dual expertise – she is also a qualified farrier, meaning she understands the biomechanical link between hoof care and overall performance. She collaborates directly with vets and farriers, ensuring a well-rounded treatment plan.
Equine Physiotherapy aims to restore comfort, function, and mobility in horses. It can be an essential part of any competition programme, enhancing athletic performance and helping to maximise your horse’s potential, or supporting horses to maintain comfort and movement in everyday work.
Equine physiotherapy also plays a vital role in rehabilitation following injury or surgery, aiding recovery and the return to full fitness. These cases require veterinary referral, enabling close collaboration with your vet to create tailored treatment plans and monitor progress. Rachel provides evidence-based, practical solutions to support each horse’s individual needs.
