Meet the people behind Wild Voice
Wild Voice brings together experienced equine osteopaths who share a whole-horse view, a respect for the individual and a commitment to thoughtful professional collaboration.
France de la Cour
Founder and equine osteopath
France has worked with horses and osteopathy since 2010, bringing 16 years of specific equine experience to Wild Voice. Her work combines structural, visceral, cranial and craniosacral osteopathy, with a particular interest in rehabilitation, sensitive horses and the complex cases in which the full story has not yet been understood.
Her foundation is a Bachelor of Science in Osteopathy from the University of Wales, awarded in 2005. She completed Applied Equine Biomechanics training in 2011 and has since pursued extensive postgraduate study in equine health, behaviour and osteopathy.
France has completed 12 of the 13 modules at the Vluggen Institute for Equine Osteopathy and is working towards her final examination, planned for 2027, with the intention of joining the REDOI. She is also continuing her IDO diploma studies through the Logan Institute.
Her approach is practical, curious and collaborative. She works closely with veterinary surgeons and other equine professionals when a horse needs further investigation or a broader rehabilitation team.

Virginie
Equine osteopath and associate practitioner
Virginie graduated from the Vluggen Institute for Equine Osteopathy in May 2026. She is a member and examiner of the REDOI and brings an exceptional passion for, and depth of, traditional osteopathic thinking to the team.
France and Virginie work together on selected cases, combining complementary experience and perspectives while keeping the individual horse at the centre of every decision.
Virginie is based in High Barnet and currently works within locations accessible by public transport, generally up to approximately one hour by train. Her wider visiting area will be added once it has been agreed and mapped.
A collaborative practice
Wild Voice is being developed as a small, carefully chosen team rather than a high-volume service. The aim is to connect owners with practitioners who value thorough assessment, long-term thinking and respectful collaboration with the horse's existing veterinary and professional support network.
