Who in the UK, can legally treat a horse.

The Law in the UK is very clear about who can, and cannot treat animals and there are pitfalls that anyone owning or treating animals should be aware of. The owner and anyone treating an animal, may risk prosecution if they don't get it right. For more detailed information see the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons - Treatment of Animals by Non-Veterinary Surgeons

Subject to the Protection of Animals Act 1911 you as the OWNER of the animal can give whatever treatment you want to your animal. That is, any treatment that does not involve intrusion into the animals body. For example you are not entitled by Law to give your animal an injection. You are only able to give an injection if instructed to do so by your vet.

A Veterinary surgeon, under the terms of the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966, is legally able to give any normal veterinary treatment he or she deems appropriate to the animal in question.Your vet may also instruct a trainee vet, a vet nurse or a trainee vet nurse to administer treatments to an animal.

NOTE: An interesting point on "normal veterinary treatment".
Not even a vet is entitled to administer a complementary treatment unless he or she has been properly trained to administer that particular treatment. For example a vet can't give a homeopathic remedy or acupuncture to an animal unless they have been suitably trained to do so.
