Welcome to the Chiropractic & Osteopathy Board of South Australia

The Chiropractic & Osteopathy Board of South Australia (the Board) is the statutory authority in South Australia responsible to Parliament for the administration of the Chiropractic & Osteopathy Practice Act 2005, which is an Act to protect the health and safety of the public by providing for the registration of chiropractors, osteopaths, chiropractic students and osteopathy students; to regulate the provision of chiropractic and osteopathy for the purpose of maintaining high standards of competence and conduct by those who provide it; to repeal the Chiropractors Act 1991; and for other purposes. This is achieved by: ensuring that persons applying for registration: -   have the necessary recognised tertiary qualifications; -   are fit and proper; -   are medically fit; -   are competent to safely practice; maintaining appropriate registers; ensuring that registered persons: -   are fit and proper; -   maintain high standards of competence and conduct; approving courses of education and training that provide qualifications for registration; establishing benchmarks for practice through endorsing/preparing standards of conduct and practice, and guidelines on continuing professional development; investigating complaints about a registrant's or service provider's conduct, competence or capacity, and taking the necessary disciplinary or remedial action; preventing or restricting the practice by unregistered or unqualified persons; the investigation and prosecution of summary offences under the Act or Regulations.
