In 2015-2016 four new groups will start their studies in the Institute of Osteopathy. In September the training will start in Kazan, in October in St. Petersburg, in November in Yekaterinburg and in December in Moscow.
This year the department of osteopathy of the North-Western State Medical University n. a. Mechnikov will continue holding professional retraining courses for doctors who graduated from osteopathic schools. The program permits to receive a retraining diploma and a certificate of specialist in osteopathy in the shortest time possible.
As for the specialists who already have diplomas of osteopath, the Institute provides them an opportunity to elevate their professional level by attending seminars held by the leading foreign and Russian osteopaths. For the first time the postgraduate seminars will also be held in the Institute’s branches. Cycles of scientific and practical seminars on pediatric and perinatal osteopathy will be held in four cities—St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan and Yekaterinburg. In the coming year the courses on biodynamics, on energetic osteopathy and traditional chinese medicine and many others will continue.
The nearest postgraduate seminar “Infertility. Gaps in Medicine” held by the international lecturer François Allart and the lecturer of the Institute of Osteopathy Dmitry Lebedev will take place in St. Petersburg on September 18th -20th.
In the coming year a unique publication--”Notebooks” by Francis Peyralade will come out with the assistance of the Institute of Osteopathy. In 2013 the French osteopath donated his manuscripts to the Institute. In his four notebooks the author shared his more than 50-year experience of osteopathic practice. Special attention is paid to the osteopathic treatment of newborns and to the correction of some neurological states. The examples of some osteopathic techniques are also given in the “Notebooks”.
Two issues of the Russian Osteopathic Journal—the only scientific edition on osteopathy in Russia—are waiting for everybody who is interested in osteopathy. The readers will learn about the osteopathic researches of Russian and foreign scientists, about the latest news of the osteopathic community. It is also possible to place an advertisement in the journal.
By tradition, the year will be concluded by the International Symposium “Osteopathy Open 2016” – an annual scientific event with participation of the leading osteopaths and representatives of other medical branches.
