Equine Physiotherapy

Professional Horse Physio in Cheshire

At IP Veterinary Physiotherapy, we provide expert, hands-on equine physiotherapy for horses of all disciplines, from high-level competition to leisure and hacking horses.

 

Based in Cheshire and working across Manchester and the North West, we offer mobile veterinary physiotherapy that supports your horse’s comfort, movement, and long term performance.

​

Whether you're managing an ongoing condition, helping your horse recover post-surgery, or simply want to keep them in peak condition between competitions, we tailor each treatment to your horse’s individual needs.

Physiotherapy for horses

Just like athletes, horses put their bodies under regular stress, whether in competition or during everyday work. Veterinary physiotherapy for horses uses a combination of manual therapy, electrotherapy, stretching and tailored exercise programmes to:

​

  • Improve flexibility, strength and core stability

  • Support healing after injury or surgery

  • Relieve stiffness, muscle tightness or discomfort

  • Enhance performance and reduce risk of injury

  • Maintain condition throughout the competition season

Common conditions we treat in horses

  • Performance changes, including not jumping as well, or carrying tension somewhere in the body whilst being ridden.

  • Tendon damage

  • Ligament problems

  • Soft tissue damage

Supporting all disciplines
 

We work with a wide range of horses, including:

  • Event horses

  • Racehorses

  • Show jumpers

  • Dressage horses

  • Everyday riding and hacking horses
     

A lot of our equine work focuses on routine maintenance- keeping horses supple, comfortable, and at their best throughout the season. We also offer sports massage to help your horse recover between competitions, aiding circulation, reducing tension, and supporting muscle repair.

Each session includes a full assessment, treatment, and advice for ongoing care and exercise, helping you to monitor progress and support your horse’s recovery or performance long term.
