Max Fraval on Learmonth Drive in Kambah. Better known to some of his patients as Miracle Max. I took DS there because of reoccuring ear infections. 6 treatments later and we haven't had an infection in over a year! Impressive since he was getting them every two weeks. He's in the phone book.

I think Tim Taylor is fantastic. Just don't know if he is still around in Canberra as when I last saw him (December 2004) he had moved to Melbourne and was coming up once a fortnight for three-four days. Don't know whether or not that is still the case. His number is 6282 5889. There are about 5 or 6 other osteopaths there and if Tim wasn't around I would go and see one of them if I needed to. They are located in Deakin. Suite 4, Arralumna House, 8 Phipps Close.

Hope this helps.

I was going to recommend Dr Fravel as well. I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown with DS's reflux as a newborn and Dr Fravel was fantastic.

Interestingly I have an appointment with him on Wednesday for DS's now troublesome ears. I hope I have the same good result that you did Kylie :-)

Cheers

Thanks for the replies... does Dr Fravel only work with children? I need the treatment myself!

I have to recommend Dr Mark Tapper (Belconnen Chiropractic Centre 62511133). He is fantastic, a chiropractor as well as an osteopath. He has done wonders for my whole family original.gif Well worth the drive if you're southside.

K1,

I think Dr Fravel sees adults as well but I'll double check for you tomorrow. He can be hard to get into as he travels overseas quite a bit for conferences etc. Apparently he is the leading paediatric osteopath in the country so we are lucky to have him so close.

Cheers
