The iO … here to support, unite, develop and promote the osteopathic profession
Welcome to the Institute of Osteopathy’s website for the osteopathic profession. We are proud to represent over 70 percent of UK osteopaths, and we encourage and welcome new members. This site has been created to provide a range of information and resources to guide osteopaths through every stage of their career; from starting out, advancing your clinical skills to developing your practice, while providing vital support and practical advice across a wide range of clinical and business issues. In addition to being able to access a wide range of services, your membership is contributing to the work of the iO to promote and develop osteopathy and invest in the future of our profession. We want your feedback – We are constantly tailoring our services based on the feedback we receive from our members. Please post your comments at the bottom of each page of the site. Alternatively, email your suggestions to enquiries@iosteopathy.org. Membership benefits – Take a look at what you can access as an iO member.

These resources provide a helpful visual summary of clinical guidelines and referral pathways, including recommendations from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), that can be downloaded and used as a quick reference guide for use in clinic and as a CPD resource.
