Meet the Team
Katy founded Haybridge Veterinary Physiotherapy and Hydrotherapy in 2018. In 2024 she was joined by Lauren Stringer to help expand the business and to build on the strong success to date. In 2026 a new hydrotherapy pool was introduced which greatly expands the range of services on offer to clients. The business is independent and accepts referrals from any Vet practice within the area. Both partners are fully insured and members of the National Association of Veterinary Physiotherapists (NAVP).

Katy James
BSc (Hons) Vet Physio MNAVP, MIRVAP (ICH)
Katy graduated from Warwickshire College with a BSc (Hons) in Veterinary Physiotherapy and gained Level 3 Canine Hydrotherapy qualification from Hawksmoor Hydrotherapy. Competing with her dogs in agility, she realised the important role of vet physiotherapy in ensuring her dogs remained in tip top condition .to deliver their best possible performances. She also realised how beneficial veterinary physiotherapy can be in helping maintain our older pets with their mobility, and to rehabilitate our pets that have suffered injuries or post surgery.
