Chiropractors believe that
the human body is a self regulating and self healing organism
controlled by the brain and the nerves –
especially the spinal chord.
In Australia the peak body
representing Chiropractors is the
Chiropractors Association of Australia. According to their
website the role “Chiropractic is the science of locating
offending spinal structures, the art of reducing their impact to
the nervous system, and a philosophy of natural health care
based on your inborn potential to be healthy”
Typically Chiropractors work with
the spinal column and other joints support nervous system
control and other body functions. This will be supported by
general health advice in the areas of health, exercise and body
maintenance (eg stretching)
To become a
Registered Chiropractor in Australia you need to complete a
5 year degree.
