About Amy

Amy Barton is a Chartered Physiotherapist, graduating from the University of Brighton with a Bachelor of Science degree in Physiotherapy in 2001, and is governed by the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP).

Amy started Equi-Pet Physiotherapy in 2007 after completing her Masters Degree in Veterinary Physiotherapy, undergoing her training at the Royal Veterinary College, London on the MSc course accredited to the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Animal Therapy (ACPAT). Amy therefore upgraded to become a qualified Category A member of ACPAT in 2007 and was on the committee for ACPAT as Education Officer and International Liaison Officer 2009-2015.

Amy has a keen interest in treating both the 2-legged human variety and 4-legged animal variety of patients with physiotherapeutic techniques, specialising in treating both rider and equine clients. Amy also has a keen interest in treating canine patients with various conditions that can be helped with physical therapy intervention.

In her spare time Amy likes to ride and occasionally compete her horses, kitesurf on the sea when the wind and waves are willing, and snowboard in the mountains too, having worked as a physiotherapist in several ski resorts for a number of winters in the past.

Amy has recently moved from the Surrey Hills to start a new adventure living and working in Devon, covering both Mid and North Devon as well as North West Somerset, for both animal and people patients. So please do get in touch if you need her assistance with any musculoskeletal problems, pain, or you want to discus anything further - Amy will be pleased to hear from you.
