✨5 reasons a vet referral from your physio is actually a good thing✨

1. It means I’ve listened to your horse and your concerns. If something doesn’t fit the usual muscular patterns, I won’t ignore it.

2. You get clearer answers sooner — and save money in the long run.

Getting the right diagnosis early prevents wasted sessions, delays, and chasing symptoms that aren’t the true cause.

3. Your horse’s welfare comes first.
A referral simply means I’m prioritising their comfort, health and long-term soundness over me getting paid on the day.

4. It keeps everyone working within their scope. Physios and vets each have specific roles. When we combine them, your horse benefits.

5. It’s not a setback — it’s teamwork. A joined-up approach leads to better decisions and better outcomes.

🔸🐴What is Winback TECAR Therapy? 🐴🔸

Winback TECAR (Capacitive and Resistive Energy Transfer) is an evidence-based innovative technology, or therapeutic diathermy modality (deep tissue thermotherapy), that uses electrical currents in the radio waves band of the electromagnetic spectrum with a tissue pe*******on depth of 8-9 cm.

It is also known as radiofrequency electrical current therapy (RFEC) or by the acronym CRET (capacitive and resistive electric transfer) therapy.

Winback is a brand name. TECAR therapy has been well known in human sports medicine and physiotherapy for decades with outstanding results. This treatment is well tolerated by horses and extremely versatile.

Great for SI dysfunction, chronic and acute back pain, osteoarthritis, tendon and ligament injuries, muscle pain and much more!

I’m so pleased to be able to offer this modality in my practice. For enquiries please ring 07473307607 or drop me a DM

When the imposter syndrome kicks in again I like to remind myself that I work science based and to remember all of the good results I’ve had in the past ✨🐴

Very important message. Horses are designed to move, physical injuries and implications can limit movement but staying as mobile as possible during rehab should be the ultimate goal.

✨ Laser Therapy for Horses — The Gentle Power of Light ✨

At LTE Equine VP, we’re proud to offer Low Level Laser Therapy (Class 3B) as part of our physiotherapy treatments — a safe, painless, and effective way to support your horse’s recovery and performance. 💡🐴

Laser therapy uses targeted light energy to stimulate cell repair, reduce inflammation, and speed up healing, helping your horse move more freely and comfortably.

💫 How it can support your horse:

• Tendon, ligament, and muscle injuries
• Muscle tightness or soreness
• Wound healing and scar tissue management
• Joint stiffness or discomfort
• Chronic conditions (e.g. arthritis, kissing spines)
• Post-surgical rehabilitation
• Windgalls

🌿 By boosting blood flow, oxygen delivery, and collagen production, laser therapy encourages faster tissue repair and long-lasting comfort.

It’s a completely non-invasive treatment that horses generally find relaxing — many even snooze during their session! 😌

If your horse is recovering from an injury, struggling with stiffness, or you want to enhance their ongoing wellbeing, laser therapy with LTE Equine VP could be just what they need.
