Panta Rhei is a well-known institute for postgraduate development in osteopathy and has more than 20 years of experience in pediatric osteopathy. René Zweedijk is the head of a well experienced team of osteopathic teachers. Laurie Kolfoort will be the coordinator and also a teacher in the program.

For the course in Denmark we have chosen a unique design with a combination of e-learnings and physical/practical meetings. In the e-learning sessions we will focus on the theoretical aspect, whilst the physical meeting content will be based on osteopathy in practice. For both sessions the participants will get the handouts in advance to give an opportunity to prepare themselves. The online meetings last about an hour and can be watched live or later in time. During the physical meetings, the emphasis will be on osteopathic practice with the child from birth to adolescence as the central subject.

The course consists of 7 modules of 4 to 5 days. Whitin these modules 3 clinic days are scheduled. (Practical days with young patients we treat together.) After the last course weekend an online exam will take place. To join the exam a 90% attendance is mandatory. You need to hand in 2 case studies and you will be treating a child by zoom using your webcam. The cost of taking the exam will be 225,00 euro’s
