Over the past few weeks Dr. Roja has spent time in her home country of Nepal, filling up her spiritual cup with festivals, treks and adventures. It is important to Dr. Roja that she stays connected to her culture and she wanted to share a snap shot of these moments with you. Chandanbari and Gosainkunda Lake are just some of the places that Dr. Roja was able to explore and create magical moments in.

This trip has allowed Dr Roja to relax and recoup so that she is able to provide the best care for her clients now that she is back in practice.

In March 2019, The Victorian Health Minister tasked Safer Care Victoria to lead a review of the practice of spinal manipulation on children under 12 years.

Of the submissions, the findings listed above, indicate positive experiences with Chiropractic treatment in children.

In Australia, there has never been a serious adverse event reported in the literature or in insurance claims, involving the care of a child by a chiropractor. This is despite the fact that there have been an estimated 12-15 million visits by children to chiropractors in the last 20 years.

The evidence of harm is low because Chiropractors modify their techniques to suit the age and developmental stage of the patient across the lifespan.

If you would like to arrange a consult for your child, contact us today on 9715 3888.
