Unit description
This unit further develops both Gonstead and Diversified manual techniques and introduces the student to a broader range of techniques commonly used in the management of patients who attend a chiropractic clinic. The unit emphasises evidence-based practice. The unit facilitates the student's competency in the assessment and management of a wide range of sports injuries in the chiropractic setting in Australia. Students will use a multidisciplinary team-based approach to achieve this goal.
