About
Vet Physio Phyle

With over 20 years of equine experience, Calli has been passionate about equine health and wellbeing from a young age. Her riding career began at the age of 6 with Pony Club, and continues on with the same passion she held as a child, training a number of horses up to PSG to fulfil her dressage passion. Calli currently competes her imported PRE Fusion gelding called Meji at BD Medium level and MCI competitions. They also represented Surrey at the Intercounty Championships in 2024.

Prior to graduating from her Veterinary Physiotherapy degree, Calli began Vet Physio Phyle as an Instagram page in order to document her journey to becoming a qualified Veterinary Physiotherapist. Following rapid growth, Vet Physio Phyle is now an established social media and blog platform which aims to provide accessible information about equine musculoskeletal health and compassionate training to horse owners.

Above all, Calli’s main aim of practice is to simply make horses happy; through providing premium treatment modalities and approaches in addition to targeting the neuromuscular and psychological aspect of rehabilitation. Utterly inspired by her horse Meji who required intensive rehabilitation following his importation from Spain in 2019. Her main specialism is combining physiotherapy releases with groundwork patterns, creating a dynamic release approach to the horses body and mind. The FER (Functional Engagement and Realignment) Approach was curated from these learnings.

Neuromuscular Release Techniques combined with INDIBA Radiofrequency Therapy

Calli’s premium approach to Veterinary Physiotherapy treatment is advanced by integrating myofascial and neuromuscular release techniques to reset your horses posture.
As one of the first therapists to incorporate INDIBA Radiofrequency into practice in 2020, Calli’s expertise in the application of radiofrequency therapy in combination with advanced physiotherapy is valuable in providing a deep, whole-horse approach to treatment.
By combining INDIBA Radiofrequency with Veterinary Physiotherapy, musculoskeletal dysfunction and imbalance can be treated at their root, promoting deep relaxation and release for improved posture and suppleness whilst also optimising tissue repair.
Tissue Release in Groundwork

Integrate hands-on physiotherapy, targeted soft tissue and joint release, and precise mobilisation techniques with structured groundwork and polework patterns to achieve deeper muscle release and functional activation. Using hands-on release work on the ground and over poles can;
- enhance proprioception
- encourage correct recruitment patterns for positive posture
- promote symmetry through functional repetition.
This combined method allows us to access and release deeper muscle layers that may be difficult to influence by manual work alone, while simultaneously retraining the horse to use those muscles effectively in a controlled, progressive manner, leading to improved mobility, strength and long-term biomechanical balance.
Polework & Groundwork for Positive Posture

Continue to develop the positive effects of treatment in between sessions with a bespoke groundwork, ridden and polework programme to you and your horses requirements.
Reduce the risk of injury, promote deeper muscle relaxation and establish suppleness through targetted groundwork and polework patterns.
Unsure of where to start? No worries! Calli offers groundwork, polework and ridden lessons to guide you through a comprehensive way to support your horse from the ground and saddle.
