Exotics, Wildlife & Farm Animals

Osteopathy For Your Animal

Eleanor has worked with zoo based endanged species, as well as household exotics and farm animals. She uses the principles of osteopathy to ensure that your animal receives the most effective treatment possible, giving management and rehabilitation advice as suitable based on the requirements of the animal and the environment.
We are happy to work with your animal’s medical team to produce the best outcome.

Osteopathy can either be used to assess the condition of your animal and treat preventatively to aid performance, or it can be used for treat specific conditions, such as inflamed joints, age related muscular tension/soreness, post-operative rehab or after a direct injury and periods of forced rest. Some techniques (e.g. cranial osteopathy, balanced tissue tension and soft tissue massage) are particularly helpful for animals with nervous dispositions, who require a gentler form of treatment.


Location and Frequency

Preventative care is usually prescribed 1-6 times a year, depending on the individual and the activities they undertake, whereas treatment for a condition requires a more regular approach. As a result, we are happy to treat groups of animals outside our key areas on a preventive basis, but those requiring more frequent treatment should ideally be within our catchment area in South Hampshire and East Dorset.


Booking a Treatment

If you have an exotic or farm animal you would like assessed and treated osteopathically, we ask that you get in touch with us via email, outlining your reason for requesting treatment and the problem you are observing in your animal. We will call you back within 24 hours (weekdays only) to discuss the next stages and to ensure suitability. Vet referral will be requested if pertinent.

Any other questions, don’t hesitate to contact Eleanor using the email button at the bottom of the page. Then, we can discuss your situation in more detail.
