The approach
A private, high-end approach to animal osteopathy, designed to treat every animal with precision, gentleness and discretion.
A graduate of the European School of Animal Osteopathy and registered with the French National Veterinary Council, Emma Delporte has been practising animal osteopathy since 2019. Structural, fascial, visceral, cranial: each technique is chosen for the animal in front of her, never the reverse.
Wellbeing and performance are the two words that govern her practice. An animal that no longer compensates is an animal that lives fully, without pain or restriction. That is the sole aim of every session.

The species
Every species.
No exception.
The show horse as much as the house cat. The structure changes, the attention paid to it does not.
Dogs
Every category, from working and sporting dogs to life companions. Care from puppy to senior.
Cats
From the family cat to the show cat, at any age. A particularly gentle and gradual approach.
Cattle
Herds or show animals: calf, cow or bull. Treated directly on the farm.
The reasons for a consultation are the same for every species, and the way of working does not change from one structure to the next. See when to call
When to call
An animal never says it hurts.
It compensates instead.
A stride that changes, stiffness on rising, a temperament that closes up: the signs are usually discreet long before they become visible. Osteopathy works as much in prevention as in response to an established problem.
- An annual preventive check-up
- a change in behaviour
- an exercise it can no longer perform properly
- a drop in performance
- a change in gait
- poor posture
- lameness
- muscular asymmetry
- a fall or a trauma
- post-operative recovery
- recovery after giving birth
- sport follow-up: preparation, recovery, upkeep
- growth monitoring
- care for an ageing animal
- digestive troubles
- a loss of appetite
And the animals that travel. Car, plane, boat: the body absorbs every journey, and nothing prepares it to string so many together. Jet lag, a change of climate, stables or home: every new environment is also a source of stress, and the body says so in its own way.
The visit
A dedicated journey.
A slot that belongs to you alone.
The time is given entirely to your animal, at the pace that suits it. The clock is never watched.
First contact
A preliminary review of the animal’s needs, in writing and then by telephone where useful: history, discipline, way of life, reason for the consultation. The appointment is arranged around your diary.
Dedicated journey
Emma Delporte travels to the animal: to your estates, your stables, a competition venue or on board your boat, in France and abroad.
Full assessment
An overall analysis of posture, locomotion and behaviour before any manipulation. The animal is observed both in movement and at rest.
Osteopathic treatment
A thorough examination followed by gentle techniques chosen session by session: structural, fascial, visceral, cranial, applied according to the animal’s needs. If the signs observed are not osteopathic in nature, Emma Delporte refers you back to your veterinarian.
Recommendations and follow-up
What to do over the following days, exercises where needed. The follow-up continues after the session, through remote video assessment. Where needed, coordination is set up with your veterinary surgeon, naturopath or nutritionist.
Discretion
Your estates, your stables, your names.
Nothing leaves the session.
Every visit is carried out with the strictest respect for the privacy of the families concerned and the confidentiality of their properties. No photograph, no reference and no name is ever shared, published or quoted.
A non-disclosure agreement can be signed before the first visit, on request and without discussion.

The territory
The Riviera in summer. The Alps in winter. Elsewhere if your travels require it.
Emma Delporte works across France and internationally, adapting to your way of life as much as to that of your animals. Residences change with the seasons; osteopathic care need not be interrupted for that.
Animals that travel a great deal, by car, by jet or by yacht, receive particular attention: every journey leaves its mark on the structure.

A single point of contact for your teams, a prompt reply, and the same discretion promised to the families: no name, no location, no photograph ever leaves the session.

Testimonials
I was looking for an animal osteopath after my cat Simba’s accident: a severe dislocation and a paralysed tail… Simba has recovered 80% of his mobility! Emma is gentle, patient and highly skilled in her practice. I am delighted and can only recommend her!
Simba’s family, cat
I called on Emma for my Border Collie, whose back had seized up. Emma came this morning. As always, she was very available and responsive. A wonderful way with animals, very gentle, and my dogs love her. I warmly recommend Emma: the results are always there.
