Equine/Animal Physio HELP ADVICE NEEDED

[hannahtpfidler]

Can anyone please advise me regarding the below:-

I am wishing to have a career change into Animal Phsyiotherapy. I have been given mixed advice about some of the courses that are available.

Some people say that doing human and then animal is the best route but at nearly 28 I already have an undergraduate degree a masters and I am currently in full time employment. So this route isnt viable and is also too costly.

Would people warrant using your services if you are only qualified via a direct animal route (CEPT) (TCAP)??

This is something I am quite serious about getting into and would appreciate peoples advice??

Thanks.

Though I have now graduated and currently setting up business , and grey_arab on that thread I believe is now a 2nd year student. Should give you an overview. Feel free to PM me if you want to know anything else . If you go through my past posts you'll be able to find a lot more too!

I am indeed a 2nd year on the CEPT course and I have enjoyed all of it, 2nd year has been great so far.
The course is really well run, great support . I was also concerned about the accreditation side of things, however there are plenty of graduates from CEPT that have found no problem at all getting work.
There are also moves to create a body like the RCVS to put an umbrella over all the manual therapies, so it's a bit of a watch this space in that regard.
Any questions, please feel free to PM me
