Our vision of the osteopathy is one who is meant to be global and centered on knowledge and its integration in practice. The Quebec Sutherland Osteopathy Academy (ASOQ) trains osteopaths able of choosing among panoply of techniques and their clever application.

Our requirements and admission criteria rest on the spirit of William Garner Sutherland, one of the fathers of osteopathy, who wanted to instil this approach since he was journalist, which did not prevent him from acquiring knowledge making him a pioneer and an undeniable pillar of osteopathy. As he was driven by a strong motivation to learn, he became an accomplished osteopath.

Holding a related diploma is not therefore a precondition to follow a training at the Academy. The student not having much knowledge in basic science will however have to provide an additional effort. If passion for osteopathy is strong enough, success is possible! Numerous students have achieved it to this day.

At the ASOQ, we assess competences at the exit and not at the entrance.
