Donna Blinman Animal Rehabilitation

Donna works with her patients with respect, care and collaboration. Her treatments, while highly effective, are also very gentle, which enables her to work with a huge range of animals with different temperaments and sensitivities.

Her treatment philosophy is that the body is a highly intelligent and self-healing organism, and therefore chronic injury or illness are indicators of imbalance in the body that it is not able to resolve. Donna works to understand and remove barriers so that the body's natural repair and healing systems can take over. This way it is possible to address the root course of chronic problems and provide highly effective long term improvement.

Core to her work, is the understanding that the body, mind and emotional systems are all inextricably linked and powerfully impact each other. Complete health care requires considering and working with all three elements together. To this end, during consultations Donna will offer advice on a wide range of topics, including management, lifestyle, nutrition and exercise. She also offers her highly transformative 1:1 coaching and group workshops for animal owners who wish to look more deeply at the emotional components of long term injuries and illness in the body. You can find more information about this on the coaching page.
