A Guide to Alternative Therapies for Horses

There is little authoritative information available which gives a technically balanced overview of this subject. The main purpose of this guide is to explain the underlying principles of some alternative therapies for horses, and how they relate to systems of medicine. It also clarifies how to identify those who may legally give advice and treatment, and in what circumstances they may do so. Further guidance and information about qualified holistic practitioners in veterinary medicine, approved holistic farriers, saddlers, dentists, therapists, and nutritionists may be obtained from the British Association of Holistic Nutrition and Medicine.
