Now, the

Doctors say that not only is there no evidence for spinal damage during birth, there's a real risk of damage from spinal manipulation of newborns.
Paul Bowett is head of paediatrics at Royal Darwin Hospital.
What is that risk?
In April, amid the outcry about Ian Rossborough's videos, the Royal Australian College of GPs called on doctors to simply not refer children to chiropractors.
In another Ian Rossberry YouTube video featured on Background Briefing, he manipulates the neck of a boy with an ear infection, suggesting that the infection was probably a result of a fall and subsequent bump on the head, which would have lowered the boy's immunity.
Lockie, do you remember the fall that you had at school?
He jerks the boy's head sideways.
The boy is shown later returning to the clinic with no ear infection.
Doctors commented that this type of middle ear infection usually clears up anyway.
After the ruling of the Chiropractic Board two weeks ago, Ian Rosper is no longer allowed to treat children under the age of two at all.
He can't do manipulations on children between two and six years old and his work has to be supervised.
There are other conditions on his registration as well.
But Ian Rosper is by no means alone in his unconventional treatment of babies and children.
Some chiros practice SOT, sacro-occipital technique.
Rodney Bonello, president of the new professional body Chiropractic Australia, says that the SOT approach can be useful, but there's an underlying evidence gap.
A sub-branch of sacro-occipital technique is CMRT, chiropractic manipulative reflex technique.
Pressing the base of the skull is believed to help a range of conditions.
But again, Rod Bonello is not convinced.
