Kayleigh Kruger - BSc. Vet Physio (ELC)
Kayleigh Is the Owner and Head Therapist at Holistic Strides Vet Physio. She completed a 4-year Honours level BSc degree in Veterinary physiotherapy and is now an SAVC registered veterinary physiotherapist specializing in therapy for both equine and small animal patients.
Here is a little bit about Kayleigh:
"I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals and my love for them has only grown stronger over the years. From dogs and cats to horses and even exotic pets, animals have always been a huge part of my life.
I’m especially passionate about helping equine athletes achieve peak performance and ensuring the best possible functional results for both my orthopedic and neurologic animal patients.
When I’m not treating patients, I enjoy exploring nature, spending quality time with my own pets, drawing, baking or attempting to learn a new skill.
I’m so excited to have the opportunity to help your animals reach their full potential, recover after surgery, or simply keep them comfortable and happy while they continue doing the things they love! "
