Nowadays, more and more people turn to alternative forms of medicine in order to avoid invasive procedures and treat different disorders in an effective way. Osteopathy is a holistic treatment method that involves the detection of indurations, tensions or other disorders and solving them with the use of the hands and special techniques. Osteopathy aims to promote the self-healing properties of the body and encourage its natural processes to combat discomforts and resolve symptoms through eliminating their cause. Osteopathy university degree programs most commonly teach subjects like Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, Psychology, Biology, Biochemistry, Neuroscience Basics, Healthcare and Health Sciences, Pediatric Foundations of Osteopathy, Therapy Management and more. Osteopathy degree courses provide students with thorough understanding of the processes in the human body. Students learn to apply different methods and techniques of recognizing, diagnosing and treating diseases and conditions through work placements where they gain experience in the osteopathic treatment of patients and transferrable professional skills, such as good sense of touch, hand-eye coordination, strong communication and problem solving. Careers for Osteopathy graduates include jobs in sports medicine, traumatology, as well as pediatrics and neurology.
