Unlock the secrets of traditional osteopathy with biobasics, perfect for undergraduate students and graduates eager to deepen their practice A Foundation for Osteopathic Practice BioBasics provides a welcoming and supportive learning environment where osteopaths can deepen their perceptual skills, refine their palpation, and become part of a community passionate about the principles first described by Dr Andrew Taylor Still and Dr William Garner Sutherland. Inspired by the teachings of Dr James Jealous, this two-day program explores the biomechanical, functional and biodynamic principles of osteopathic treatment. Participants are encouraged to learn in an informal, collaborative setting where curiosity, mentorship and clinical excellence are at the centre of the experience. Whether you are an undergraduate student, recent graduate or experienced practitioner, BioBasics offers an opportunity to develop your clinical awareness while connecting with a community of like-minded osteopaths.
