Specialist treatment for horses and dogs
We provide mobile equine physiotherapy for horses based at Mandara Equestrian Club in Abu Dhabi, treating your horse directly at their stable without the need to transport them elsewhere.
Mandara is home to a busy riding and livery community, with horses working across different levels of training and disciplines including dressage and jumping. The club provides premium livery alongside indoor and outdoor riding facilities, allowing horses to remain in regular work throughout the year.
Regular training, competition and changes in workload can all place different physical demands on a horse. Physiotherapy can help assess movement, muscular balance, mobility and areas of tension while supporting rehabilitation, performance and ongoing maintenance.
Every appointment is tailored to the individual horse. We consider their history, workload, movement, muscular development, previous injuries and any concerns raised by the owner or rider before deciding which treatments are most appropriate.
Physiotherapy isn't limited to injured horses. Horses at different ages, workloads and stages of training can benefit from professional assessment and appropriate treatment.
Dressage requires strength, symmetry, flexibility and controlled movement throughout the horse's body.
Regular physiotherapy can support muscular balance, mobility and range of motion while helping riders manage physical changes that can develop as training progresses.
For horses training and competing regularly, physiotherapy can form part of an ongoing performance and maintenance programme.
Assessment can help identify muscular tension, asymmetry or changes in movement before they begin to have a greater effect on training or performance.
Following injury or veterinary treatment, physiotherapy may form part of a structured rehabilitation and return-to-work programme.
Treatment and remedial exercise can be adapted as the horse progresses through different stages of recovery.
A horse does not need to compete to benefit from physiotherapy.
Leisure horses can experience muscular tension, stiffness, reduced flexibility and compensatory movement in exactly the same way as competition horses.
Age-related changes can affect mobility, muscular strength and flexibility.
Appropriate physiotherapy and exercise programmes can help support movement, comfort and function as horses get older.
As young horses develop strength, balance and coordination, assessment can help identify areas where targeted exercises or management changes may support their physical development.
Bringing together clinical knowledge and a passion for animal wellbeing.
