Who are “Chartered Physiotherapists”?

The title "Physiotherapist" alone is not evidence of a formal qualification in Physiotherapy. The title "Chartered Physiotherapist" and the initials MISCP indicate that a physiotherapist is a member of the professional regulating body, the Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists (ISCP). The Society only accepts people with an approved university education and hospital-based training.

Unfortunately, at present there is no law preventing anyone from practising as a “physio”, even if they have no training. The only way to make sure you are in the best hands is to check that your Physiotherapist is ‘Chartered’.
