Extend your practice – Diploma in Animal Osteopathy starts October 2017

New Diploma Course starts October 2017

This exciting new programme is designed for those who have already undertaken training in animal osteopathy and are able to demonstrate a thorough understanding of basic osteopathic assessment and treatment (including gait analysis, articulation, soft tissue and stretching).

Delivered over 5 months, our Diploma course provides hours of hands-on practical with live animal models. It is intended to enhance participants’ knowledge of functional anatomy, neurology (and neurological testing) and pathology; orthopaedics (with associated osteopathic testing) and integrated thinking. This course will teach students how to evaluate their clinical findings, test appropriately and treat with advanced techniques, such as Balanced Tissue Tension/fascia, toggles and low velocity thrusts.

The course is open to Osteopaths with existing animal qualifications and all ESO Foundation Course attendees.  Other animal manual therapists and osteopaths with experience but no formal qualifications may apply, subject to prior learning review and interview.

* Please note: if you are not an osteopath, you may not use the term ‘osteopath’ or any such variation when advertising yourself in the UK; on that basis, manual therapists will be awarded a Diploma in Animal Manual Therapy and may use terms such as ‘manual therapy’ or ‘body work’ when describing techniques taught on this course. All animal treatment requires prior consent from the animal’s vet and practitioners must work within their scope of practice – for further information please refer to the ESO website. Due to higher running costs, all ESO animal courses are subject to sufficient delegate bookings.
