Our elderly chihuahua had double cruciate ligament surgery and we were super worried about his recovery with it being both his back legs. I got in touch with Kirsten who got him in as soon as he was able to do physio. He has had regular sessions with her over the past few months and he is moving the best he has in years! She has taken great care especially with him being so small. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for an animal physio. Thank you for everything you’ve done Kirsten xPosted on Google![]()

Hector, my Basset Hound, had several sessions of physiotherapy with Kirsten. His mobility improved greatly over the weeks he had treatment. He absolutely loved his sessions as he laid down ready for his massage and stretching. I recommend Kirsten for any any pets struggling with arthritis or similar.Posted on Google![]()

First some context. Our beloved Elkhound, Harry, first met Kirsten when having hydro therapy to help with his arthritis. Kirsten then went on to act as Harry’s physiotherapist. Harry was eventually 15 and a quarter when we lost him, a day (one of many in his time with us) that will forever remain in our memories. However, 15 and a quarter is a good age for his breed. We are convinced that he achieved this milestone with the help, skills and compassion of Kirsten. We will be forever grateful for her contributions to the last 2 years of his time with us.Posted on Google![]()

Kirsten has been treating our senior dog, Roxy, for elbow/hip dysplasia and arthritis. The physiotherapy and laser treatments have made a positive impact on her mobility, she is more comfortable and a much happier dog - her quality of life has greatly improved. Roxy has multiple health issues which Kirsten continually reviews to ensure she is receiving the best treatment possible. I would highly recommend Kirsten … her level of expertise is evident, she has a calm and confident manner, which translates into a comfortable and positive physiotherapy experience, and she has a genuine compassion for animals … she truly cares about the well-being of the Roxy … she’s a great physiotherapist!Posted on Google![]()

Kirsten has been working with Rosie, our 16 1/2 year old Lakeland Terrier, since March 2023. Using her massaging skills, together with exercises, Rosie's stiffness and muscle wastage in her hind limbs has improved greatly, and we are working to try to help her tightness in her neck and shoulders. The improvement has been noticed by Rosie's vet and her groomer. Kirsten is very patient with Rosie and is very thorough, always only working at Rosie's pace. We would definitely recommend Kirsten to anyone needing canine physio.Posted on Google![]()

I would write a review after every visit ! We have been seeing Kirsten owner of Hurdles Physiotherapy after our Australian Sheepdog Nell became an amputee a year after an horrific cliff fall. Throughout the entire time since her accident and subsequent amputation, Kirsten has been by her side, encouraging and designing programmes of exercise and rehabilitation. Nell has had monthly physiotherapy and with Kirsten's expertise and level headed professionalism , Nell has gone from strength to strength. Kirsten has helped us set realistic targets, built my confidence and helped us through this difficult time, with her calm manner. Her professionalism is unwavering, her advice and expertise is sound, her knowledge and theoretical base is vast. Her particular approach means Nell will do anything she asks of her. We could not have got through this ordeal without the service of Hurdles and Kirsten. I would one hundred percent recommend this company. Kirsten really know what's she's doingPosted on Google![]()

Kirsten has worked with my dog before and after surgery to repair a cruciate ligament. Wilma is high energy and nervous but totally trusts Kirsten and will relax and allow her to complete the physiotherapy. Exercise is tailored to Wilma's ongoing arthritis which is helping to keep her mobile. Wilma loves her sessions with Kirsten either in the pool for hydrotherapy or a physio appointment.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
