It’s World Osteopathic Healthcare Week, did you know there are more than 200,000 osteopaths and osteopathic physicians around the globe.
Osteopaths and osteopathic physicians generally deliver multifactorial, complex interventions as a comprehensive package of care. This fits with the growing demand from international health agendas.
The profession aims to improve overall patient wellbeing, considering the biological, sociological, psychological and spiritual needs of people as part of their local communities as well as addressing health globally.
Osteopathic professionals provide care, input and advice across a range of sectors including advisory roles in the fields of government, international health, sports, education, rehabilitation, occupational health, safety and ergonomic design - not just individual health care.
