The course gave me a personalised experience… Throughout the course, I really appreciated the small group sizes and the intimacy of the clinics/ lectures. It would have been much harder to integrate with a course that had 50 plus students.
The most enjoyable part of the course was working with patients, building a rapport,
helping them to live with less pain and helping them to have a better awareness of
what was happening in their bodies.
I used to work in sports massage before I began my osteopathic journey. Prior to enrolling in the College of Osteopaths, I explored several open days with other providers. However, I ultimately chose the college based on its strong reputation and emphasis on hands-on skills. Initially, the prospect of a lengthy commitment seemed daunting, but I thoroughly enjoyed the journey. It felt like being part of a big family that supported, challenged, and motivated me to achieve my goals.
Before I started my degree, I was in the military. As a result of an ankle injury I received rehabilitation and this sparked my interest in Osteopathy. I had an amazing few years learning about the body and how amazing it is, and how we can be an influential part of a person's pain journey. Since qualifying, I joined the NHS and work in an MSK department
The course is all inclusive to people of all backgrounds. With me starting the course with no previous experience or knowledge of anatomy, I was worried that it would be overwhelming. However, lectures take it at a steady pace and ensure that students do not feel overwhelmed when delving into new topics.
I found the course extremely flexible with excellent support available when challenges arose... I can honestly say that this is the best thing I have ever done.
