Because Back-to-School shouldn’t be a pain in the back! Help your kids start the new school year in the best possible way…
* Pack the heaviest items closest to the spine, keeping the total weight of the backpack below 10-15% of the child’s body weight.
* Ensure a snug fit against the back and use both shoulder straps, chest & hip straps.
* Bend your knees and use your legs to lift the backpack, avoiding twisting motions.
* Ensure children sit with shoulders back, relaxed, and both feet on the floor, especially with increased screen time.
* Ensure children get at least 60 minutes of daily physical activity to combat sedentary behavior.
Chiropractic care for children helps detect issues like scoliosis or postural misalignment early. It can alleviate symptoms often mistaken for restlessness, such as headaches, fatigue, and difficulty focusing caused by physical strain.
