GCos

The General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) was established in May 2000 after the Osteopathic Act of 1993. They are the regulatory body for the profession. Osteopathy is a Statutory Regulated profession in the same manner as doctors and dentists. All Osteopaths are required to be registered with the GOsC. The title ‘Osteopath’ is restricted by law so that only those who are registered can use the title. Telephone  020 7357 6655  or go to  http://www.osteopathy.org.uk/standards/complaints/
