Working as an osteopath in France
The title of ostéopathe is protected in France. You need a diploma from a school approved by the ministry of health, a five-year programme after the baccalauréat, or a specific programme for doctors and physiotherapists, then registration with the ARS. Some techniques, on infants and the cervical spine for example, require a prior medical opinion. Sessions are not reimbursed by the Assurance maladie but often partly by mutuelles. Foreign qualifications need an authorisation to use the title. Search for « ostéopathe », « ostéopathe remplaçant », « ostéopathe collaborateur » or « ostéopathe du sport ».
