Osteopathy Awareness Month

Sharing knowledge opens doors for us all 

Join us this Osteopathy Awareness Month to promote the benefits of osteopathy and raise the profile of the profession you love.
As a valued member, we need your help in our Osteopathy Awareness Month campaign this April, and we have made it easy for you to support this awareness drive. 

Living with pain should not be normalised, and life without pain is worth celebrating! So, we’ve designed a campaign to promote the health and wellbeing benefits of osteopathy with everyday Australians.

Osteopathy Awareness Month is an opportunity for you to engage with your own audiences. In promoting your profession, you highlight your own knowledge and services, increasing social engagement and encouraging bookings.
Osteopathy Awareness Month is an extension of World Osteopathic Healthcare Week taking place 15-21 April. Dedicated to celebrating and promoting osteopathy, this month is about sharing your knowledge with a wider audience.

Five reasons for members to get involved this April

1.    Amplify osteopathy awareness as a profession to generate new business.
2.    Easy, ready-to-use content for your social media – saving you time.
3.    Fresh blogs and resources to share, aimed at patients to educate them on the value of osteopathy –we want to make your busy life easier.
4.    Unite the profession for a cause while showcasing the important work we do.
5.    Connect with other osteopaths and encourage community engagement.

As part of this campaign, we have designed assets for you to use on your marketing channels to promote osteopathy.
