Pferdephysiotherapie Rieks

Pferdephysiotherapie Rieks provides physiotherapy and holistic support for horses and riders, with services available across North Rhine-Westphalia and, by request, beyond. Working from the Krefeld, Bochum and Warendorf areas, the practice serves the Lower Rhine, Ruhr region and Münsterland. Its approach emphasizes harmony between horse and rider, a relaxed seat, subtle aids, fair treatment, fitness, prevention, performance, rehabilitation and motivation.

Services include equine physiotherapy and rehabilitation, riding lessons, rider-and-horse assessments, purchase examinations, lunge and pole work, and reviews of stable management and feeding conditions. The practice also offers saddle assessments using rider, saddle and horse analyses, as well as competition preparation and support, training plans and courses for riders, clubs, breeders, equestrian businesses and other interested groups. Course topics include equine biomechanics, riding and saddle principles, rider fitness, coordination and effective communication with the horse. Sessions may incorporate Franklin balls, a Balimo stool and a balance pad. Human physiotherapy expertise informs the practice’s integrated focus on the wellbeing and development of both horse and rider.
