The General Osteopathic Council regulates
the practice of osteopathy in the United Kingdom. By law osteopaths must be registered with us in order to practise in the UK.
We work with the public and osteopathic profession to promote patient safety by registering qualified professionals, and setting, maintaining and developing standards of osteopathic practice and conduct.
The UK Statutory Register of Osteopaths includes all those who are allowed to practise osteopathy in the UK.
You can use our Register to find a local osteopath.
We take your views into account when planning new areas of work or improving the way we do existing work.
