Safe, effective osteopathy at the service of athletes

The International Association of Sport Osteopathy is the association that brings together professional osteopaths working in the field of sport

OUR OBJECTIVE

Osteopaths can support athletes in rebalancing the mechanical and physiological processes that are the basis of performance, as well as in the prevention and recovery of injuries, working in synergy with other staff professionals such as coaches, doctors, physiotherapists and mental coaches.

Our objective is to promote osteopathy in sport, ensuring a high standard of training in terms of safety, effectiveness and concrete response to the needs of the athlete, with reference to the EBP (Evidence Based Practice) approach.
