Promoting Chiropractic in Australia and New Zealand

Principles of Practice Council's Principles of Practice Committee has developed a document titled "Principles of Practice". These Principles are not prescriptive. Individual jurisdictions have their own standards to which a registered chiropractor complies as part of registration requirements. However this document outlines some high level principles which should be considered in the practice of every chiropractor. The Council expects that teaching institutions, chiropractic associations, overseas trained and newly graduating chiropractors have a thorough understanding of these principles and their application. These Principles are not exhaustive. Any dereliction of professional duty and/or responsibility or the abuse of any of the privileges and opportunities afforded by practicing as a chiropractor may give rise to an allegation of professional misconduct or conduct unbecoming a chiropractor. The question of whether any particular course of conduct amounts to this is a matter determined by the relevant local authorities after considering the evidence in each case.
