Hormone Osteopathy Course Series

In most osteopathic training programs, the endocrine glands and hormonal system receive insufficient attention. Consequently, many osteopaths are not sufficiently familiar with the endocrine system, various hormones, and functional hormonal disorders. On the other hand, the incidence of functional hormonal disorders has significantly increased in recent years (stress-associated thyroid disorders, functional immunodeficiency, chronic adrenal fatigue, cyclic mastopathy, chronic insulin resistance, and much more).

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.

Hormonal 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 component 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.
Furthermore, important endocrine glands that are usually discussed in detail during basic training will be reviewed and examined 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.
