Hormone Osteopathy Course Series

In most osteopathic training courses, the endocrine glands and the hormonal system are given far too little attention. As a result, many osteopaths are not familiar enough with the endocrine system, the various hormones and functional hormonal disorders. On the other hand, the incidence of functional hormonal disorders has increased significantly in recent years (stress-associated thyroid disorders, functional immunodeficiency, chronic adrenal exhaustion, cyclical mastopathy, chronic insulin resistance, etc.).

The Hormone Osteopathy course series aims to address this area of tension. The course series consists of 3 courses.

With this package, you receive Hormone Osteopathy (Basic), Hormone Osteopathy (Integration), and Hormone Osteopathy (Advanced) at an exclusive special price with a 10% discount on the course fee.

Hormone osteopathy (Basic)

This course focuses on the often overlooked, sometimes completely unaddressed endocrine glands: the thyroid gland, thymus gland, mammary gland, and adrenal glands. In addition to the basics of the various endocrine glands, the most important hormones and their hormonal interactions between organs are discussed. Conventional medical pathologies and functional pathophysiologies are covered, as are osteopathic diagnostics and the osteopathic treatment of functional hormonal disorders of these organs.

Extremely important and common functional and pathological disorders are discussed, including their osteopathic examination and treatment, e.g. Hashimoto’s, stress-associated thyroid disorders, cyclic mastopathy, functional immune disorders, adrenal exhaustion, etc. These disorders and their treatment are not discussed in many osteopathic training courses and are unknown to many osteopaths.

Hormone osteopathy (integration)

This course deals with the higher-level control of the hormonal system (pituitary gland, hypothalamus, and pineal gland). The endocrine glands and their most important hormones are covered, as are the classically described hormonal axes (HPA axis – pituitary, hypothalamus, adrenal axis; HPG axis – hypothalamus, pituitary, gonadal axis) and functional secondary axes are discussed (e.g., thyroid-mammary-ovary; thymus-liver-spleen; posterior pituitary-mammary-uterus, and much more).

An important part of the course is the integration of the endocrine system, i.e. the discussion of the functional interactions between the various endocrine glands and hormonal control.
In addition, important endocrine glands that are normally discussed in detail in the basic training are repeated and discussed from new functional perspectives.

Hormone osteopathy (Advanced)

In the 3rd course, special hormonal situations in life are discussed. This course will be offered for the first time starting in 2027.

In addition to reviewing the integration and the contents of the 1. + 2nd course, special hormonal features are discussed in the 3rd part.

The courses in this series can also be booked individually.
