15.01.2022 The sun is shining and spring has sprung... Our inside plants are thriving and we have a new friend to welcome you into the practice. #marryatvillechiro

14.01.2022 With summer well and truly underway, its the perfect time to let the sun shine on your spine, by getting out and active with these great summer spine activities.

12.01.2022 The Sunday Night Program on Chiropractic: Tonights Sunday Program made a circus of an important issue, and as a result a number of issues canvassed during the ...program require clarification: 1. All Australian chiropractors operate within a well-defined code of conduct and are regulated by the Chiropractic Board of Australia and the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). 2. The ACA supports the Australian governments view that immunisation is an important healthcare initiative. 3. There is very little evidence of harm of treating children with spinal manipulation. 4. Chiropractic has an impeccable safety record in Australia, with approximately 30,000 paediatric visits to chiropractors every week nationally, and in the last 20 years the insurance company which insures approximately 70% of Australian chiropractors has not defended, nor settled a claim against a chiropractor arising out of the treatment of a child under 12. It is reasonable to assume at least 12 million services have been provided in this time. 5. There is significant evidence of the value parents experience of the informed care provided. 6. The extent of high-level evidence for SMT care for children is not extensive, however the absence of evidence does not mean the absence of effectiveness. 7. If the law applied to all health providers is uniform and equitable then many other professions, including surgeons and medical doctors, should be restricted in their care because they do have evidence of harm and the extent of high-level evidence for care is also not extensive. 8. ACA supports minimisation of harm not restriction of choice.

11.01.2022 Thanks to the Victorian Government for doing this research for us. The largest response ever to a call for public feedback by the Victorian government found that 99.7% of parents had a positive experience of chiropractic care for their child. We cant share testimonials so this kind of research is very important for the public to see whats possible. Thank you to our patients who took the time to participate in the public survey and share their experiences. Your feedback has been so valuable.

07.01.2022 The ACA is aware of articles appearing in News Limited papers around the country this morning concerning Spinal Manipulation of Children by chiropractors. The a...rticles quote selectively from the Safer Care Victoria (SCV) final report, selecting facts to fit a narrative. Our response to the Herald Sun can be accessed at www.chiro.org.au/media. ACA members should read their email from ACA President, Dr Anthony Coxon, sent a short while ago. The SCV final report is available now on the Safer Care Victoria website. The report includes a Public Consultation Report prepared by EY Sweeney and the Systematic Review of Spinal Manipulation in Children prepared by Cochrane Australia. Todays reporting has been driven by just one Health Minister, and no formal decision has been announced by all Health Ministers who are meeting today and tomorrow. The ACA continues to represent its members and those Australians who make informed choices on behalf of their children every day and value highly the care they receive from chiropractors.

05.01.2022 To all our wonderful clients Well, to say things are moving along quickly would be an understatement. In these rapidly evolving and uncertain times we want to reassure you of the steps we are taking to ensure both your safety and the safety of others. What we are doing:... At Marryatville Chiro we are closely monitoring daily updates from our governing bodies and following up to the minute government advice that is being handed down. We have implemented even higher standards of cleanliness and hygiene in our practice. All treatment tables, waiting areas, and rooms are continually being wiped down with 70% alcohol solutions. We are practising social (physical) distancing and so have created extra areas and spaces for you to sit to enable you to adhere to the 1.5m distance - including outside in the courtyard. Please feel free to explore. Youll note we have removed toys and magazines from the reception area. So yes, more screen time is ok for now! - or, conversation with a fellow client is always an option What you can do: If you have a fever or cough or shortness of breath or have travelled internationally in the last 14 days, or been in contact with a suspected Covid-19 case, please call the centre and we will reschedule your appointment to a later date. An automatic hand sanitiser has been fitted inside the front entrance, and we ask you to please use it on entry and exit. If you do need to cough or sneeze, remember to do so into your elbow or a tissue. Appointment options: We understand that at the moment peoples anxiety around personal and community hygiene is exacerbated, as well, clinical conditions such as OCD and phobias are heightened. If you are nervous about being in public places but still wish to have an appointment, please call the practice and let us know. We have options whereby you can wait in your car and we will call you when the practitioner is ready, so as you can move straight through. There are always options. We are here to help. Just speak to Acey, Jodie or Georgie at the front desk. Note that this also applies to those needing complete social distancing at this time, such as +70yo, and immunosuppressed patients. So whilst we dont know what the next few days or weeks will look like, at the moment we will remain open unless we are directed otherwise. We will continue to support you in the way we know best - keeping you moving and comfortable and help put your mind at ease. There is some comfort in knowing were all in this together. And one thing is certain, by looking after each other and communicating and showing compassion, well all get through this easier, and maybe better people. Heres to one big hug once this is all over Take care of each other With love from us all at Marryatville Chiro
