Liv Free Liv Free - Canine, Equine and Small Animal Massage Therapy. This experience has reinforced my desire to help animals recover and thrive.

I have always been passionate about animals and their well-being, which inspired me to pursue a career in Veterinary Physiotherapy. As a student at Plumpton, I am gaining hands-on experience and theoretical knowledge that will help me in my future endeavors.

๐ŸŒŸ A Lifelong Passion for Animals and Biology ๐ŸŒŸ
As a child, I was captivated by the incredible world of animals and their intricate biology.

This fascination has only grown over the years, leading me to delve deeper into the fields of anatomy and rehabilitation. I believe that understanding the physical and emotional needs of animals is crucial for their well-being.

๐Ÿ” Here are a few reasons why I am so passionate about this journey:
Empathy for All Creatures: Every animal has a unique story, and I strive to understand their individual needs. Advancing Knowledge: Studying biology and anatomy has equipped me with the tools to better care for animals and promote their health. Rehabilitation and Recovery: I am dedicated to helping injured or ill animals regain their strength and confidence through tailored rehabilitation programs. Community Engagement: Sharing knowledge and experiences with fellow animal lovers can inspire collective efforts to improve animal care. I am particularly interested in how physiotherapy can improve the quality of life for injured or aging pets. I also enjoy participating in workshops and seminars to stay updated on the latest advancements in veterinary care. In the future, I hope to specialise in sports physiotherapy for working dogs and equine athletes, as they require specialised care to maintain peak performance. My goal is to combine my love for animals with my skills in physiotherapy to make a positive impact in the field. Overall, my journey as a student veterinary physiotherapist is just beginning with my massage therapy, and I am excited to see where it will take me!

๐Ÿพ Join me on this journey as we explore the fascinating intersections of biology, anatomy, and animal rehabilitation. Together, we can make a positive impact on the lives of our furry friends!

This is Tippy, the tripawd sweetheart! ๐Ÿพ ๐Ÿ”ฑ โค๏ธ ๐Ÿป

Poor Tippy had her right foreleg removed after a traumatic injury when she was just 4 months old ๐Ÿ˜ช
She also faces daily issues with 2 different grades of luxating patellas in her hind legs ๐Ÿ˜”

We are working on keeping her as comfy and as pain-free as possible with a tailored rehab and home exercise plan! ๐Ÿซถ โœจ๏ธ ๐Ÿพ

Some exercises and treatments include:

๐Ÿ• weight shifting
๐Ÿ• cavaletti poles
๐Ÿ• massage through her hypertonic (tight) areas, especially her hamstrings! This also helps relax and calm Tippy and increases her lymphatic drainage and circulation.
๐Ÿ• Trigger point release or ischamic compression for her ouchy trigger points along her back
๐Ÿ• PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic frequency) to reduce inflammation, increase vasodilation, and benefit her pain transduction, which help keep her comfortable and aliviate some of her pain.

She has also just made her debut on TV and into the celebrity world, appearing in the new Standard Life advert, so if you see her, let me know!! ๐Ÿ’Žโค๏ธ๐Ÿ™๐ŸŽฌ ๐Ÿ“ฝ

Each case is a new challenge, from canine hip dysplasia to equine hock issues, and I'm passionate about finding personalised rehabilitation solutions for every individual animal ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’ซ

I'm thrilled to be applying my skills, expanding my knowledge, and gaining confidence with each new case, experience, and animal ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿด๐Ÿฆ„๐Ÿฆฎ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿˆ๐Ÿฉ

Some days tougher than others, for different reasons...as I am sure everybody can relate! But i keep reminding myself, i am further than I EVER have been, and I have made it this far, when i never thought i would.....๐Ÿคฏ ๐Ÿซถ
