How do I book?

The best way to book is pop me a quick message on Whatsapp, with your email address.

(Or feel free to go straight for email, I just don't want to miss anyone going into the junk folder!)

-> I'll then send you a form, where you can describe your horse's problem (or why you want Physio).

It's all then on my software, making life easier for everyone.
