About Active Strides Physiotherapy
Alex Ford IMSC

I independently created Active Strides Veterinary Physiotherapy in 2024. My goal was to create a loving and personal business, with the aim to help as many pets as I can to make a full recovery from various conditions, surgeries, injuries or even age-related decline. I have always loved animals and knew I had to spend my life working with them. This lead me to study animal management in 2016, which allowed me to discover veterinary physiotherapy! Helping animals whilst creating a loving bond with them sounded like the perfect fit for me. Following that, I graduated from Writtle/ARU University in 2022 with a Masters degree in Veterinary Physiotherapy. I soon followed this by further completing a level 4 degree in canine hydrotherapy. I currently work 3 days a week practicing hydrotherapy at a veterinary clinic in Godalming, Surrey. This has allowed me to gain experience with a range of conditions, whilst communicating with vets, nurses and other rehabilitation professionals. 

I am registered with NAVP, meaning I am continuing my educational development through CPD, I am fully insured and my practice is monitored via registered professionals.
