a girl that understands soundness and balance"
Roisin, co-owner & handler
Todd - Ch Ina's Fashion Dedicated to Boughton (Imp Deu)
Harrie - Tendrow Malibar JW
​
Lara has been fantastic with our dogs. I have Greyhounds, Dachshunds and Whippets. Lara has helped getting them in shape, keeping them fit and sound and always ready for the show ring.
​
Thanks to Lara, Todd has been the top winning Greyhound male 2 years running, and she has helped getting Harrie prepped to go on and win RDCC at Crufts 2024.
​
The dogs love it when Lara comes to see them, she is so calm and chilled with the dogs and they fall asleep in every session.

Truly 100% trustworthy - a girl that understands soundness and balance.
"Lara is amazing with
our dogs"
Becki, breeder, owner & handler
Zelda - Ch Boloria's Trick Or Treat JW
Zelda loves having her sessions with Lara, she is always so calm and sleepy after. Lara is amazing with all of our dogs and always makes sure they are happy and chilled for treatment.
Having regular McTimoney treatments keeps Zelda in tip top condition, looking and moving with ease. With keeping on top of Zelda’s treatments she powered her way to Best Veteran in Breed at Crufts 2024.
"Your animal could not hope to be in better hands"
Liz, owner
Alfie & Bear
The short story:
I would highly recommend Lara Coghlan for both dog and horse. Lara is, in my view, a brilliant practitioner. Calm, friendly and kind, professional and thorough. Your animal could not hope to be in better hands.
The longer version:
Lara has been treating my horse for about a year now. Alongside her treatment and laser, she has given advice and recommendations for exercises and supplements. All these have resulted in a horse whose performance has considerably improved and is sometimes "joyous" so long as it is not too warm (the weather not being within Lara's remit!). There is no doubt in my mind that Lara has played a huge part in this.
She has also been treating my dog for a slightly longer period of time. He had an issue with his back which, at its worst, caused him to nibble and cause hot spots. Lara has been able to get this reflexive spinal "shimmer" under control and you can see the improvement in his physical well being and in his coat. He has benefitted hugely from her treatment and loves and trusts her. She has been immensely patient with his "foibles" and delivered first class treatment. I am extremely grateful.
"Gaining the best performance"
Jo
Owner & handler
Roo - Goodsouls Rumour Has It It’s Falkor
Breeder, owner & handler
Baggins - Falkor Stand And Deliver
I consider our show dogs to be athletes who need to be kept in tip top condition and can often tweak themselves just like we do. I have seen how small injuries can impact movement, so, what a benefit it has been having regular treatments with Lara to resolve musculoskeletal imbalances quickly.
​
Roo, as well as going Best of Breed at Crufts 2024 at 7 years old, is the top German Pinscher for the 4th year running. Huxley our almost 9-year-old boy was Top Veteran 2023, and although he is now retired, will continue to have regular treatment as he doesn’t seem to realise his age!
Lara also checked my litter at 8 weeks before they left for their new homes and has continued to treat our keeper Baggins regularly since then. The judges have regularly commented on his fabulous straight and true movement. Baggins finished up 2023 as the top winning non-CC/Rare Breed puppy all breeds.
Lara comes to our ringcraft club monthly and has helped so many people with gaining the best
performance from their dogs.
"A miracle worker”
Rachael & Tiggy, owners & handlers
Boots - Delgray's Bootylicious at Brookwell
Frankie - Radajasa's Agent Hamish at Brookwell
I was on the verge of giving up showing my boy Frankie due to his increasingly poor movement (the result of an injury as a puppy). I wanted to get him checked over before I entered him for Crufts and by chance I found Lara.
After his first McTimoney treatment, I could see a remarkable improvement, following on with two further sessions, Lara has now been referred to as a “miracle worker” as the improvement is so noticeable!
I couldn’t recommend her gentle approach enough and will continue to use her to keep my dog moving correctly and without pain.
Our tiny little pocket rocket “Boots” was then booked in for her treatment just to get her in tip top condition for the green carpet.
Thank you Lara for such an excellent service; we shall definitely be regulars over the showing season!
"An absolute 5 star service!"
Ben, handler
Finlay - Caradilis Sky Rocket JW
Being in the dog industry myself as a groomer it was clear Lara knew exactly what she was doing with absolute professionalism.
I handle two show dogs, Arnold - a Miniature Poodle, and Finlay - a Gordon Setter. I had noticed with Finlay that he wasn’t stacking well and moved his back feet when in the stack. After seeing Lara and having 2 incredible sessions he is back to his normal self and even went and won his post graduate class at Crufts.
Lara was also so kind and caring with my poodle who doesn’t warm to new people well, within minutes he was kissing her and she had him totally relaxed. He was also amazing after his treatment and was back springing around the ring.
Lara is a natural with dogs and I would highly recommend her.
"A natural affinity
with animals"
Sue, owner
Arnie
Highly recommend Lara.
She is delightful and has a natural affinity with animals.
Our 9 year old deerhound/wolfhound cross has benefited greatly from her gentle, effective treatment.
Thank you from us and our Hound of Wonder!
"Knowledgeable and thorough, providing excellent value for money"
Peter, owner
Lenny
I have a dog with Spondylosis which I was looking to wean off medication and replace with an alternative therapy treatment. After contacting numerous specialist dog chiropractors, Lara Coghlan was the only one to make an effort to respond.
Lara provides a service where she comes to a place of your choosing to undertake the treatment (within a local area). This made things considerably easier for me as I have two dogs, one of which is extremely nervous and I do not currently drive. She quickly built up trust with both of my dogs, especially the one that is extremely nervous of humans.
As for the treatment, she is knowledgeable and thorough, providing excellent value for money and in my case, my dog loves being treated and has never been more happy\pain-free.
I could not recommend her more highly.
