Hello Everyone,

I may be slow at replying for the next few days. I unfortunately had to go in to PRH for a last minute operation last night and i am coming home today- it’s not that serious so no need to worry
But I am really sore and underestimated the pain I would be in to then work the following day (typical me!)
I have people booked in this week that I am going to make my way through to reschedule - I will contact you soon

Very inconvenient indeed 😭

Apologies and thankyou for your understanding 🫶🏽

I love this result… why? Because he has left with increase muscle mass, fitness, a weight that is easy for the owner to maintain and a happy horse throughout! 🩵 🌟

✨ Mr. Darcey’s Progress ✨

Meet Mr. Darcey, a lovely 17yo Irish Sport Horse.

Mr. Darcey has had a difficult time over the last year. Following a fractured right hind splint bone that required surgical repair with a titanium plate, he then developed laminitis in April 2026 and was diagnosed with Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS).

As part of his rehabilitation and weight management programme, Mr. Darcey has now completed 6 water treadmill sessions with us.

The comparison photos show just one week of progress:
🐴 568 kg ➡️ 560 kg
💪 A leaner overall outline.
💪 Improved definition through his shoulder and neck.
💪 A tighter abdominal profile.
💪 Looking brighter and more comfortable in his posture.
💪 Improved topline.

For horses with EMS and a history of laminitis, controlled exercise is a key part of their management. The water treadmill allows horses to build fitness and muscle while reducing concussion on the limbs, making it an excellent rehabilitation tool when introduced at the appropriate stage of recovery.

Well done Darcey 💪🏼🥰🤎

Thankyou

Meet Nova 💙

Nova has been coming to us throughout his rehabilitation journey following a tendon sheath injury and some arthritic changes. Throughout his journey, he’s enjoyed both residential rehabilitation stays and regular walk-in appointments, allowing us to tailor his programme as he progressed.

His rehabilitation has included:
💦 Water treadmill sessions to encourage controlled, low-impact exercise.
⚡ Shockwave therapy to support the healing process.
🐴 A carefully managed rehabilitation programme, adjusted every step of the way.

The difference between these two photos speaks for itself. While the scales show a healthy reduction from 603 kg to 556 kg, what’s even more important is how much stronger, fitter, and more comfortable Nova is looking.

Rehabilitation is never a quick fix. Injuries need time to heal, and rushing the process can do more harm than good. Patience, consistency, and following the right plan is key to giving horses the best chance of a successful recovery ❤️‍🩹

We’re so proud to be part of Nova’s continuing journey and can’t wait to see what the future holds for him. Well done to his dedicated owner for trusting the process and putting Nova’s long-term health first. 💙

As always, the process has been supported throughout with J Varley Veterinary Chiropractor and Massage Therapist, equinebowen_therapy, Jo Andrew’s Physiotherapist and Oakhill Equine Vets 💪🏼
