DO OSTEOPATHS UNDERSTAND MEDICAL ISSUES?

Osteopathic training includes a considerable amount of training in medical sciences. While most osteopaths are not doctors, their training and their registration with the General Osteopathic Council assures the patient that an osteopath is competent at considering and identifying 'medical' problems and liaising with the patient's general practitioner when appropriate.

Osteopaths have a mandatory regime (supervised by our regulatory body - the GOsC) of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) which ensures osteopaths are up-to-date.
