The OCC Access Course provides tailored training to introduce and nurture palpation of the involuntary mechanism and paediatric/developmental anatomy of the cranium, membranous/fascial and fluid systems to prepare less experienced osteopaths for further paediatric training. This 3-day course enables osteopaths to reach the required standard for entry onto the OCC courses (and does not limit our osteopaths to any one technical style) but can also be useful to osteopaths who want to refresh or enhance previously acquired skills and can be attended as individual days if space permits.

All 3 days will be delivered in small groups to facilitate individual learning and needs. Most of the teaching will take place at the tables with very little lecture material & will include demonstrations interwoven with appropriate practical sessions. This is designed to deliver theory but in a very practical hands-on way. In order to provide this level of supervision numbers will be limited, and places are allocated on a ‘first come first served’ basis after we consider the course applicants.
