Another familiar face today! 🐶 Enni is the sweetest girl and you wouldn’t know she’s 11 years old with the zoomies she does 🌟

A gentle reminder that I am on holiday from tomorrow (Sunday) to Friday 11th ☀️

🌟 PUPDATE 🌟

Last week we caught up with lovely Henry, the Newfoundland X who introduced us to his new little brother Rufus! Henry is a little unsure as to why Rufus has so much energy but they are already the best of buds 🥰

Rufus watched Henry’s whole treatment session, and it must’ve been quite tiring for him to concentrate for so long 😂

I always love meeting the newest little members of your fur families! 🐶🐴

☀️ A proper Gem ☀️

Last week Gem had her maintenance treatment to keep her feeling her very best, just in time for the nicer weather and longer days out with her herd mates!

Gem has a very varied exercise routine with a mixture of Equi-Agility, Hacking and Groundwork - she has earned many rosettes with her agility work and absolutely loves it 🌟

The agility work really helps with her core strengthening and limb ROM as there are plenty of obstacles to navigate, I always comment on how balanced (and flexible!) she feels in general 🐎

Gem does have a tendency to tighten through the left shoulder and we have found that regular treatments really help her to stay comfortable through this area. In addition, her farrier finds that she is much happier for him to work on her forelimbs in the week or so following a treatment (we like to keep our farriers happy!).

Gem is always a pleasure to treat and stands very patiently during her session, it does help that she has a very tasty haynet to work her way through 🎂

My books are open for new equine clients, so please do get in touch if you would like more information on how McTimoney Chiropractic and Soft Tissue Therapy can benefit your horse or pony 🐴

Gorgeous Maizee the Collie enjoyed her post Crufts treatment last week to help her feel brand new after all her hard work in the Obedience classes and demonstrations 🐕 Here she is practicing her signature move ‘hide’ in her sleep 😂

It’s so important to keep our dogs feeling healthy and happy both pre and post competition! Maizee will enjoy some well deserved time off now before starting her Spring/Summer classes 🐶

☀️ HOLIDAY NOTICE ☀️

I will be away between Sunday 6th April and Friday 11th April for some rest and rejuvenation before the competition season begins!

If you would like an appointment before Easter please send me a message to book in sooner rather than later🐴🐶

🐓 All creatures great and small 🐓

Meet Little Hen - one of our more unusual clients! Unfortunately she had an incident of being Egg-Bound, where the egg gets stuck in the reproductive tract. In her case it was a very severe case with an extremely large egg, and due to the location it did cause soft tissue damage, more so through the right limb.

Following the removal of the egg and appropriate veterinary treatment she presented with intermittent lameness and was just not her normal self!

We’ve been working with Little Hen’s owners to strengthen her up through tailored exercise and soft tissue therapy. The Low Level Laser Therapy has been extremely beneficial for soft tissue healing and additional pain relief.

I’m very pleased to say that Little Hen is now perching, walking comfortably and able to balance herself whilst standing to preen her feathers 🪶

In the background of the photo you can just see Rex’s ear sticking out of the dog bed, a lovely 17 year old Border Collie who has regular maintenance treatment to keep him feeling comfortable 🐶 He was already deep into his post-treatment snooze at this point 🥰

🌟 BEFORE AND AFTER 🌟

A bit of a soggy morning out treating in the New Forest yesterday, but the lovely Teyah is always so sweet that it makes it worth it! 🐴

It’s been a little while since we’ve done a before and after - I took these photos to show Teyah’s owner and thought they would be great to share 🌟

In the first photo you can see a Left Caudal Tilt of the Tuber Coxae (Left side of the pelvis is tilting further backwards than the right) causing her to look as if she’s standing unlevel - however her legs were all square! You can see how much the pelvis influences barrel swing and forehand balance, with Teyah offsetting her weight more through the right forelimb to counterbalance the unlevelness behind.

The second photo is post treatment and she is looking so much more balanced already, with positive postural changes throughout her body! The circled lines on the photos are areas of fascia restriction, which were also improved following McTimoney Chiropractic and Soft Tissue Therapy 🦴

February is almost fully booked so if anyone is looking for an appointment over the next few weeks please message me as soon as you can! 🌟

March is already looking busy so if you have a maintenance treatment due in the Spring then best to get this booked in early ☺️

Meet Yoko and Koyo - 2 lovely Shiba Inu’s 🐶 They are both young rescue dogs who are very nervous around new people/in new situations.

They had their first treatments before Christmas and I was really pleased with how they both settled in to their soft tissue work, they had their follow ups last week and Yoko (Red) even let me rub her belly afterwards! 🌟

Their owner has seen a good improvement in behaviour, skeletal alignment and general comfort already which is great! 😌

It is so important to have your young dogs checked out, especially when a full history may not be known prior to rescuing, as small compensatory issues at a young age could develop into a more prominent concern as the dog gets older.

Welcome Yoko and Koyo to the Aceso family! 🥰

The Top Barn challenge is a great way to keep us all motivated during these horribly wet and windy winter months! You can do both ridden and in hand work, and the exercises give you such a great variety.
Basic membership is free but be sure to join the group today to be involved in all the fun 🤩

I will be attempting the challenge with little Karen the Shetland🐴

The doors close at midnight tonight ⏳️

⭐ McTimoney Chiropractic - a Gentle and Effective treatment ⭐

The McTimoney technique is a holistic, non-invasive, whole body approach to treating musculoskeletal issues through the quick and light adjustment of bones. This specific chiropractic technique was first developed for humans by John McTimoney, and was later adapted for animals in the 1950s - hence the name!

🦴 The aim of McTimoney is to correct any subtle misalignments of the bones, in turn restoring correct nerve function, promoting self-healing and rebalancing the musculoskeletal system 🦴 We use a high velocity, low amplitude movement to gently and effectively recorrect these misalignments 🐴🐶

If you are interested in learning more about this technique, and how it can benefit you and your animals, please do let me know!

As Christmas draws closer I’d like to send out all my best wishes to my wonderful clients, old and new. Thank you for all your support over the past year, it’s been lovely seeing everyone’s updates and helping everyone feel a little more comfortable 🐶🐱🐴

2025 is bringing a big change for myself meaning that the business hours will be adapting slightly, however I will endeavour to make these changes as smooth as I possibly can (hopefully you won’t even notice!).

If anyone has any questions about this please pop me over a message or an email ☺️

Sending all my love to those who lost their beloved animals this year, it’s an exceptionally hard time to be without them. If anyone needs any support, or just someone to talk to, please do get in contact.

Merry Christmas and wishing you all a very Happy New Year!

𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗧𝗶𝗽 - 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝘁 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘀

Trot poles encourage your horse to push equally from behind, and are an excellent exercise for developing an equal stride length and for improving symmetry, straightness and coordination.

𝗦𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝟭.𝟮 - 𝟭.𝟳𝗺 𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁

To negotiate trot poles sucessfully requires increased momentum, flexion of all the limb joints, power and spring.

This year has absolutely flown by! Thank you all for keeping me so busy, so much so that I have had no time to keep up with any social media posts 😂

I have a couple of appointment slots left towards the end of December, and my 2025 diary is due to arrive this week so do message me if you were waiting for an appointment date and I haven’t confirmed yet!

Lady is getting into the Christmas spirit already 🥰

⭐ Happy Friday ⭐

Just a heads up that from January 2025 I will no longer be taking on new canine clients, the only exception will be if I already treat a member of your pack and you would like another one to be seen!

Please do message me if you have any questions about this, or if you would like contact details for other local McTimoney Animal Chiropractors ☺🐶

🐴 Equine Clients will continue as normal!🐴
