Our Kids Clinic is a unique, not-for-profit clinic day held every six to eight weeks on a Saturday morning, that provides parents on the Coffs Coast the ability to have their children assessed and treated for a minimal donation.
Philip saw a need in the community for such a service to provide early intervention and treatment to children whose parents may otherwise be unable to access or afford osteopathic treatment. The clinic's primary focus is on screening and treating children for spinal and developmental disorders such as scoliosis and hip dysplasia as well as postural evaluation. Children also present with sports injuries, birth trauma, headaches and general strains and sprains. The Kids Clinic is a learning/teaching initiative which has been approved by the Australian Health Practitioners' Regulation Authority. (AHPRA)
