Jenny Roppola

Principal Chiropractor
B.App.Sc.(Clinical),B.ChiropracticSc.(RMIT)

Jenny completed the five-year chiropractic double degree from R.M.I.T in 1995.  After this, she has had the opportunity to work all across the Eastern seaboard of Australia, and even in the United Kingdom (Belfast and London).  She has continued to pursue knowledge and experiences to further her ability to aid her patients. Just recently, Jenny completed a Paediatric Certification programme with the International Chiropractic Paediatric Association - this has seen her develop further interests in not just paediatric and maternal health, but also in cranial and neurological issues.  The next course of study that Jenny will be undertaking is one focussed on neurology and how to apply it practically to working in  a chiropractic practice.

In Sydney Jenny worked closely with dentists and chiropractors in the emerging field of 'Chirodontics', which sees the two professions working together to improve the health of patients. In Canberra she has continued this practice, working with dentists and dental patients to achieve better health outcomes.
