Selecting an Osteopath

Who is an Osteopath?

Statutory regulation of the Osteopathic Profession under the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) is mandatory following the passing of the Osteopaths Bill in 1993. Since this was fully implemented in May 2000, it is now illegal for anyone who is without recognised training and qualification and registered with The General Osteopathic Council to call themselves an Osteopath or to offer osteopathic treatment.

Since May 2000 an Osteopath is someone who holds a recognised qualification and who is a member of the statutory register of osteopaths maintained by the General Osteopathic Council
