Rehabilitation Livery for Horses
At SJP Wellness we understand that successful recovery is about more than treatment alone.
Helping your horse recover after injury, surgery or veterinary treatment.
A structured, well-managed rehabilitation plan gives your horse the best chance of returning to full health and soundness.
Whether your horse is on box rest, returning from injury, or needs careful management post-treatment, our rehabilitation livery service offers tailored support every step of the way.
Why Rehabilitation Matters
Treatment can fix a problem, but rehabilitation is what ensures the body heals correctly and stays sound long term.
Without appropriate rehabilitation there is an increased risk of:
- Re-injury
- Compensation injuries
- Muscle stiffness and imbalance
- Delayed or incomplete recovery
Good rehabilitation provides controlled exercise, careful management, correct turnout and a plan specific to your horse’s needs.

Rehabilitation Livery FAQs
My horse has had treatment, isn’t that enough?
Treatment addresses the injury or condition, but rehabilitation ensures the body heals correctly and reduces the risk of re-injury. A structured rehab plan supports safe, long-term recovery.
What happens without proper rehabilitation?
Without controlled management and gradual progression, horses can develop compensation injuries, stiffness or delayed healing. Rehabilitation helps prevent setbacks and supports a smoother return to work.
Do you work alongside my vet?
Yes. Rehabilitation plans are guided by veterinary advice, and we coordinate closely to ensure your horse’s recovery follows the recommended plan.
What types of horses do you accept for rehabilitation livery?
We support horses recovering from surgery, soft tissue injuries, ligament or tendon issues, horses requiring box rest, and those needing a structured return-to-work programme.
How many rehabilitation livery spaces do you have?
Spaces are limited to ensure each horse receives consistent, hands-on care and individual attention. Please contact us to discuss availability.
