History
Osteopathic medicine has been hugely developing within the last 25 years in Europe. While there is a consistent development in this branch of medical science, there are some controversies and questions about the quality standards of Osteopathy. EROP has emerged to clarify quality standards for Osteopaths and physicians. We are here to promote safety of our patients and to promote the profession.
EROP was founded in 2002, and as of now, it has more than 4000 active members.
Goals
Important goals of EROP are the following:
- Creating a generally accepted standard in Osteopathic Medicine by providing certificated educational programs
- Registration of Osteopathic physicians with a diploma in Ostepathy after EROP rules.
- Promoting research in Osteopathy
- International cooperation with health organizations
