Kerry Hufton Practice Manager and founder of Burntwood Hydro
My name is Kerry and Burntwood Hydro is my baby. I have worked with animals all my life and after a long career in Equine Veterinary Nursing it was my vision to build a specialist Canine Rehabilitation centre. I have a Level 3 Certificate in Hydrotherapy for Small Animals with IRVAP (Institute of Registered Veterinary and animal Physiotherapists) and I am a qualified Canine Massage Therapist and Sports massage Therapist. In my spare time I enjoy being with my whippets and occasionally like to show them and Judge Whippet shows at open level. I have a passion for how dogs move and orthopedics are a keen interest of mine.

Jessica Parker Veterinary Physiotherapist & Hydrotherapist
Hi I’m Jessica and I am Burntwood Hydro’s veterinary physiotherapist. I studied for 3 years full time to gain my Bsc (Hons) degree in Veterinary Physiotherapy and I am one of a handful of Veterinary Physiotherapists to hold a Level 4 Canine Hydrotherapist qualification. I am a proud member of the National Association of Veterinary Physiotherapists (NAVP). Physiotherapy involves: massage, stretching, electro therapy (Laser and Pulsed electromagnetic) and remedial exercise to improve the physical wellbeing of your pet. I work on increasing: flexibility, mobility, joint range of motion, willingness to work/play, proprioception, muscle mass and most importantly comfort. When your dog is influenced by a musculoskeletal condition whether pre or post operative, pain will be present. I use a range of techniques to help reduce pain and get your best friend back to their usual selves.
