What is Evidence Based Practice?
The video below covers Evidenced based Practice and what evidence based means. If interested please view the video.
In considering whether to seek care from us please take into account the following: In Australia the registration board considers Chiropractic as primarily for the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions. Our chiropractors are all registered Chiropractors with AHPRA in Australia.
Whilst our chiropractors have done various post graduate studies and post graduate training and may hold registrations for studies recognised in other countries e.g. USA, they do not have any specialist status for those post grad studies in Australia.
Your decision to seek care should not be based solely on info shared on this website and the info videos. Please do other research and do talk to your medical Dr or medical specialist.
