Regulation of Osteopathy in Ontario


The word "osteopathy" is not regulated in Ontario or any of the other provinces in Canada. The word "osteopath" is regulated in Ontario. That is why National Academy of Osteopathy (Canada) graduates are permitted to use the word "osteopathy" in their clinic names or call what they do "osteopathy". The term "osteopath" is regulated in Ontario, British Columbia and some other provinces but not all.

In the province of Quebec and some other provinces our graduates can call themselves "osteopath". In provinces where the term "osteopath" is regulated our graduates call themselves manual osteopaths or osteopathic manual practitioners.
