Abstract
This paper summarises the current opioid crisis in Australia and offers recommendations and strategies where chiropractic, on both an individual practitioner and professional level, can engage with the problem, with a view to mitigating the risks of harm of opioid overuse. The authors also describe how engaging with the opioid crisis may indeed assist in promoting and lobbying for evidence-based, guideline-concordant management for non-cancer spinal pain.
