EquiMotion Performance and Rehabilitation

Enhancing performance, accelerating recovery

Why Therapy?
At EquiMotion, we specialize in optimising performance and aiding rehabilitation of the equine athlete. Whether your aim is to improve performance within competition, to acheive a higher level of fitness for your horse, or to reduce rehabilitation time post injury, physical therapy can be the answer to achieving all of your training goals.

Performance and rehabilitation therapy is not only useful as a method of training, but can also be used as a form of injury prevention. Through the repetitive training and strengthening of sport-spefcific muscle groups, you can reduce the risk of future injury in your performance horse.

About Us
EquiMotion is a mobile business based around Auckland, with the aim to increase awareness surrounding the importance of physical therapy in the equine industry.

Ella grew up with a strong love of horses, and has always believed that every horse deserves to be given the opportunity to achieve their highest physical potential. Here at EquiMotion, we aim to promote the importance of high quality training of horses no matter what they are used for, in order to give them the highest quality of life possible.

Ella moved to New Zealand from England after graduating from Hartpury University with a First Class Honours degree in Equine Performance and Rehabilitation. She has always been a strong believer in the use of therapies in both rehabilitation and performance enhancement, and is aiming to bring her knowledge from working on a therapy yard in the UK to improve the rehabilitation and performance industry within New Zealand.

It is our aim to promote awareness of the importance of physical therapy for horses, and to ensure that owners are doing everything they can to enhance their horses physical potential, as a part of their duty of care to that animal. After all, our horses owe us nothing!

Testimonials

     

 Ella is extremely knowledgeable and is kind with a genuine love for horses. She was able to assist me with my Cob and put me at ease when I wasn’t quite sure what was wrong. She was able to answer all my questions, and help create a plan tailored to him for me to continue in the future to increase his strength and stability. Not only did she help me when she came to see him but she was able to answer all my messages and offer virtual support. Highly recommend!

 Ella has previously helped me with two of my horses - a thoroughbred and a trotter. She’s been incredible with both, giving tailored plans for each that really targeted their individual weaknesses and enhanced both of their performances. I was really impressed with her breadth of knowledge and adaptability for different breeds. She is friendly and passionate about what she does and is a great support when you need advice!
