Recommended Posts

At the General Osteopathic Council we want to actively involve patients and the public in the work we do.


We are recruiting osteopathic patients and members of the public to take part in a range of upcoming events, focus groups, surveys and consultations so we can hear your views.


It is important that the public has have confidence in the quality and safety of osteopathic care. Our aim is to ensure that we understand your needs, views and concerns so that we can improve our patient information and our guidance for osteopaths. By sharing your insight, you can help us to do that, especially in the context of COVID 19.


Whether you've got lots of time to spare or only a little, and whatever your experience of osteopathic care, we hope you'll find an opportunity that interests you. Payment and expenses covered.

If you have a question and would like to speak to us, please email us at [email protected].

Have you visited an osteopath in the last 12 months? If so, we would like to hear from you. The GOsC is hosting online focus groups with patients to seek their perspectives on osteopathic practice in light of the coronavirus pandemic.


We want to better understand what concerns you might have about receiving treatment as well as the issues would you like your osteopath to consider before, during and after your treatment.



We are seeking feedback on a range of topics including:



-whether you have recently sought or intend to seek osteopathic treatment during the coronavirus pandemic


-the use of Personal Protective Equipment


-the use of telehealth (treatment over the phone or via video conferencing)




If you are interested in taking part, the online discussion will last around 1 to 1.5hrs and ?50 will be offered to participating patients as a thank you for their time.



To find out more, please email Stacey Towle and Rachel Heatley on [email protected]

    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
