    No, Physiotherapists cannot perform Chiropractic treatments unless they undergo specialised training in chiropractic care. Physiotherapy primarily involves exercises, manual therapy, and electrotherapy to improve mobility and relieve pain.

    Chiropractic treatments involve spinal adjustments and manipulations, which require specific education in chiropractic science. Physiotherapists can use spinal mobilization techniques, but advanced chiropractic treatments require certification from recognised chiropractic programs.
