Hi, i suggest you got to UWS. Reputation does not matter much in healthcare, people will still come to your practice even if you went to UWS. The usyd masters is still undergrad condensed into 2 years so its hard going, where as uws's program still teaches you some physio in the early years...

i'm not 100% sure, but fairly sure optom & physio arn't immune. I was thinking of transfering to optom, read some threads on it, think it was in medstudentsonline, they were saying some optoms were working 2 part time optom jobs to earn a full time wage. But, perhaps its less of an issue since...

Nice articles kaz, yeah some of my articles could go either way i guess. yeah definitely the chance of having a stroke after going to a chiro is extremely extremely low, but still exists. I admit i used it as a arguments to stave of attacks from mr bored:P btw you have some seriously recent...

Kaz.n i am in no position to evaluate mac's chiro program, nor do i know that is scientific or feasible. I am just going on what you said mac's chiro program teaches it's chiro students about the modern chiro philosphy. And basically from your definition, to me and im no expert, but it sounds...

No Kaz.n that doesn't sound unscientific at all. In fact that sounds right. And i agree with those findings despite almost having a layman's understanding of spinal manipulation. Its not so much spinal manipulation that i'm against, its that the definition of what is taught in modern chiro...

does this not sound pseudoscientific to you "A more moderate hypothesis would suggest that spinal manipulation results in the optimal biomechanical function of the spine at a segmental level hence delaying the onset of degenerative disease (which is inevitable but exacerbated by poor...

Thanks kaz.n, thats cleared up what's actually taught now at unis, couldn't quite get that out of mr.bored. He just kept denying but couldn't explain what his learnt. But, are you able to provide any articles to back this hypothesis up, because unless it can be proven medically that such...

well thats great now the chiro student has concluded that physiotherapy is a pseudoscience. I shall cease to argue my points with such an uneducated buffoon. I don't understand what your insistence with my degree year is. Is my opinion less if i'm in a lower year? Having completed one degree...

yes considering that physio atar requirments range from 97ish-98ish and chiro programs are a good 10-15 lower, i can only conclude that i am an illiterate imbecile. I think the adage "for those that didn't make the cut at any mid/high level health programs but still want to play doctor, become a...

my bad, thats what i mean

1 - bit rich coming from a person who initially failed to reveal they even did chiro and acted like an outsider with no personal predilections. 2 - trust me i wouldn't ask you to teach me quackery 3 - yes considering that physio atar requirments range from 97ish-98ish and chiro programs...

Your arguments seem to be pretty weak now mate. You haven't even responded to the numerous counter arguments to your laughable views - particularly the chiro's performing manip in surgery. I said i 'think whateva chiro's do' because of YOU the dichotomy between chiro and physio has been...

Catandmouse: this = Uni is alright finding it hard:( but yeah after a few years @ hosp i'd do the sports or manip. syd is okay i guess, hows csu? i heard its like really small class size? are you originally from sydney area? have you started pracs?

GG can u stop fuckin up the html code with your insitance on font. Using verdana font doesn't make you look any less idiotic. Undergrad physio is general physio allows work in hospital, its recomended u work in hospitals for 2 years before private practice. Manipulative, sports, neuro, or...

Firstly, may I ask are you a GP? You seem to do alot of referring, that is why I ask. Is that a stab at GP’s? What if I said I were an orthopaedic resident? Do I not refer patients for pre/post rehab? Or maybe Sports physician, I still refer. Or what if I am a janitor at a high school or a...

i'm about to reply to mr bored but i've been down with severe nausea at the thought of replying to his extended responses. Do bear with me at this difficult time. EDIT: Lol at criticising Kwayera's uni course. At least its a proven scientific and academic discipline. EDIT: I agree Kwayera.

Thats awsome both of you guys should go into practice together. Back in HS careers advisors were suggesting chiro as a back up incase i didn't get into physio. I did get in the first time i didn't do chiro but i certainly researched the chiro profession and the differences and similarities...

not Uni of south australia i think UAdelaide is more appropriate
