An Adelaide chiropractor jailed for indecently filming hundreds of female clients including children has admitted to more charges of child exploitation.

Peter Wayne Snodgrass pleaded guilty to two counts of possessing child exploitation material in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Wednesday.

The offences date back to 2017 at Crafers West.

Snodgrass will face the District Court of South Australia in June.

The 53-year-old is currently serving a 10-year jail sentence for 216 charges of indecent filming and production of child exploitation material.

His victims were aged between 11 and 60 years old at the time.

For those charges, Snodgrass concealed cameras inside pens and a clock radio that he placed in change rooms to secretly film female patients while they were undressing, for x-rays at his Rostrevor clinic in Adelaide's east.

At the time, the District Court heard Snodgrass's offending began in 2010 and he continued to take photos of women for "the thrill of it" after his wife died of cancer but he had no sexual attraction to young girls.

In sentencing Snodgrass to a non-parole period of eight years for that offending, Justice Anne Bampton said Snodgrass had "transgressed professional and moral boundaries and your unsuspecting victims have been traumatised" by learning what he has done.
