Ministers weigh legal ban on spinal manipulation in kids
The move follows public outcry over Melbourne chiropractor filmed dangling newborn by its ankles
Chiropractors could soon face an outright ban on spinal manipulation of infants, after health ministers agreed to reconsider the legal status of the practice.
Victorian Minister for Health Jenny Mikakos says she will commission an independent review on the safety of spinal manipulation and whether the national laws need to be updated to prohibit its use on children under 12.
