WHAT IS OSTEOPATHY?
Osteopathy is a way of detecting and treating damaged parts of the body such as muscles, ligaments, nerves and joints. When the body is balanced and efficient, just like a well tuned engine, it will function with the minimum of wear and tear, leaving more energy for living.
Osteopaths treat a variety of common conditions including postural problems caused by driving, work or pregnancy, repetitive strain injury, the pain of arthritis and sports injuries and colic or sleeplessness in infants.
Osteopaths undertake four to five-year honours degree programmes underpinned by thorough clinical training, and are all committed to a lifelong system of mandatory Continuing Professional Development.
The General Osteopathic Council regulates, promotes and develops the profession of osteopathy, and maintains a rigorously-enforced register of practitioners
