Are you curious about the qualifications of your chiropractor? Don’t be. In Australia, chiropractors are government registered and regulated health professionals.

Chiropractors must be university educated, accredited and registered. The Chiropractic Board of Australia (CBA) regulates the registration and accreditation of chiropractors practicing in Australia.

To become a registered chiropractor in Australia you must have studied a five-year chiropractic degree at an Australian university. Alternatively, you need to have completed an accredited program overseas approved by the Chiropractic Board of Australia.

An individual who holds a chiropractic qualification can qualify for general registration by undergoing assessment by the Chiropractic Board of Australia.

The CBA maintains a registry of Australia professionals, and you can confirm your chiropractor is accredited by checking on their website.
