Pippa works with elite performance horses in Dressage, Endurance, Eventing and Racing alongside some of the UK’s leading veterinary specialists.

Pippa has been working as a therapist for over 20yrs. Prior to that she had a well established business training difficult horses, in various disciplines as well as coaching riders. This, and the multiple qualifications achieved, gives her a unique perspective when assessing each case. In 2012, she developed the canine side of the business. When she isn’t providing physiotherapy care to animals, she is lecturing & mentoring others who share the same passion: - to help animals LIVE THEIR BEST LIFE.

Pippa Winkworth started horse riding at 3 years old. From a young age she developed a professional career as a horse trainer, having gained valuable experience with Jane Edwards (British Endurance Team and dressage rider). Pippa successfully trained horses at all levels in Dressage, Eventing, Showjumping & Endurance, as well as Natural Horsemanship.

Pippa was drawn to the difficult horses with 'behavioural' problems. She realised that many cases had underlying pain which were manifesting as behavioural issues. This led her to Ken Skinner in 2001, a veterinary chiropractor based in Norfolk. After working as a chiropractic assistant with Ken, in 2006 she gained qualifications as a Veterinary Therapist & graduated from European School of Animal Osteopathy (ESAO) in 2009. Pippa went on to gain an MSc in Veterinary Physiotherapy at Harper Adams University.  This gives Pippa a very unique approach to resolving issues, rehabilitation & improving performance.
