Claire Cole
- Qualified Veterinary Nurse

- Member of Complementary Therapists Association
I am a qualified massage therapist for both humans and horses.
My training consists of an ITEC Diploma in Anatomy, Physiology and Holistic
Massage, which was then added to with an ITEC Diploma in Equine Sports Massage.
This diploma was run by Mary Bromiley FCSP, SRP, RPT (USA) the world-renowned
Chartered Physiotherapist based in Somerset. This qualification has enabled me
to become a member of the Equine Sports Massage Association (ESMA) -

All members of ESMA are fully insured, undertake continuous training and abide
by the Veterinary Act (1966) which states that permission must be obtained from
the client’s veterinary surgeon prior to a massage treatment.
I have owned and ridden horses from a very young age competing nationally in
eventing at 1* Level representing East Anglia in the junior teams at Weston Park
and Tweseldown. I currently own 2 horses Philly a mare I have had since I was 14
and her daughter Milly a homebred 4yr old who is just starting her competitive
career in dressage, showing and hopefully eventing.
I am also a qualified veterinary nurse and enjoy dog walking and training in my
spare time.
