After
being squashed under a people carrier for
60ft and sustaining horrific injuries, my vet warned me that Oscar, my
18 month old Border Terrier, would be highly unlikely to ever regain
full use of his leg, even if he kept it at all.
After 2 months of intensive input from the vet to keep infection out of the exposed bone it was over to Tina to help him get whatever movement back he could. Her manner was very calm and calming for both the dog and me, she really did give me hope. Tina explained everything she was doing to me and why it would help Oscar including the use of some pretty sophisticated kit. She was able to read his reactions to any therapy and modify it as needed She clearly demonstrated simple exercises for me to do with him between visits and was as thrilled as I was to see the improvements in his movement. She recommended hydrotherapy as a supplement which also seemed to help build muscle. 6 months after the accident he is back to enjoying 5 mile walks and, apart from an impressive war-wound scar, no-one can tell he was injured at all. He has astounded the vets as they have never seen such improvement from such a serious initial injury. I would highly recommend her to anyone without hesitation. Anita

Tina has very kindly treated two of our foster dogs. The first one being Billie, a six month old Springer Spaniel with a broken leg. Billie had to spend two months in a crate whilst recovering and Tina came round twice a week to massage and treat his leg. Understandably, Billie was manic at times with all that pent up energy but Tina was very calm and patient. The vets were very pleased with Billie’s progress and the treatment he received. The second dog Tina has been treating is an elderly collie with arthritis called Zebedee. He has very much enjoyed is massages and we have noticed a difference in his mobility after treatment.Tina is continuing to support and help our foster dogs for which we are very grateful. Alison

My 'Staffy'
Phoebe sustained fractured bones and a
dislocation to her ankle following an unfortunate accident when my
horse stood on her. The result of an operation to
repair
the damage
required her hind leg to be externally pinned for six weeks.
Not
only
did it cause muscle wastage in her hind leg, but also effected her
mobility, causing tension throughout her whole body. Tina
worked
on
her weekly for the first six weeks using hands on treatment and her
therapy machines.
The results were immediately obvious as by the end of each session Phoebe became less tense and her muscles felt pliable and softer. She thoroughly enjoyed the sessions. Our vet was very pleased with Phoebes recovery and was extremely complimentary about the part Tina's therapy had played in this. She has now been approached by our vet in order that she can receive referrals to assist other animals that can benefit from her treatments. As a result of meeting Tina, she is now treating my horse some six months after major colic surgery. I am seeing positive results and I only wish my equine vet could have recommended physiotherapy for him as I would have started his treatment much sooner. I cannot thank Tina enough for all her help and advice. Her dedication to her work speaks for itself. Karen

After two operations and nearly a year on box rest, my Maxi Cob, beyond all expectations is happily back in work, cantering and even jumping. His Showing career which was dismissed as over, may now be a possibility. I do believe that with the aftercare he had, set the success of his recuperation. Part of his aftercare included treatment from Tina Enders, a Cotswold based Animal Physiotherapist. Tina being a horse owner herself is extremely understanding of the pressures not only on the animals owners, but also, the horse as an individual case. Her treatment with my horse Bob, was confidant, gentle, and intuitive. I would highly recommend Physiotherapy treatment and regular follow up care. I believe it has been a great assistance to Bob, his well being, assisting him with his under used muscles, balance, and tightness due to his box rest and operations. Tina is professional, trustworthy, and happy to 'chat' about any worries or concerns, of which she did frequently with me at any time of the day or night! Mel
