CPD Courses

Osteopathic practitioners are well-positioned towards implementing a biopsychosocial approach within the context of a pain science informed practice as it is already part of the osteopathic practice to treat the person as a whole, however most continuing education courses and educational institutions lack a modern day understanding of how pain works and still focus on a tissue-based model explanation of pain. 

​

This continuing education course combines the holistic philosophies of osteopathy with the latest research in pain neuroscience and informs practical clinical applications for the management of persistent pain from a biopsychosocial perspective, within the scope of osteopathic practice.

This course enables participants to reframe their way of addressing factors beyond the tissues that can significantly impact a person’s experience of pain. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the various mechanisms involved with persistent pain and learn evidence-informed treatment strategies to layer on top of their current osteopathic skill set. 

This live, 7.5-hour course is designed for osteopathic professionals who want to deepen their understanding of persistent pain and clinical skills to foster person-centered care. 

This continuing education course is targeted to osteopathic practitioners. Practitioners of other allied healthcare professions are also welcomed to attend.
