Kids are getting ready to go back to school, so we’re here to share some tips as we enter a new school year!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today we’re starting with BACKPACK TIPS:
🎒 A backpack should not weigh more than 10-15% of your child’s body weight
🎒 Size matters! Don’t choose a backpack that is too big
🎒 Wear both straps
🎒 Use the waist belt and chest strap to help reduce strain on the neck & shoulders
🎒 Distribute the load evenly
🎒 Tighten straps so the backpack sits high on the hips
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you aren’t sure if your child’s backpack is fitting properly, bring it along to your next physio appointment and we can make sure it’s fitting properly! 👍

FEEL THE BURN🔥

Who knew wall sits could be such a tough position to hold; but this is why we as Physios LOVE incorporating it into our sessions!

Though it may seem like an easy position, our Physios find ways to challenge each kiddo by creating variations such as:cues for them to learn "how low" to squat. Depending on the age of the child, we ask them to sit for a certain duration of time to really "burn" out their muscles. This exercise targets the lower extremity muscles, as well as the core, all while working on their endurance.

Though it may seem like an easy position, our Physios find ways to challenge each kiddo by creating variations such, as:

🟢 Standing on an unstable surface while doing it;
🟢 Extending one of their knees, to make it a single-leg wall sit; OR
🟢 Having a ball behind their back to further challenge their balance

Today, we celebrate nature.
Today, we celebrate connection.
Today, we celebrate and express gratitude to the First Nations, Inuit, and Métis nations who have had deep connections to this land we call Canada - on which we are fortunate to now work, live, and play - for time immemorial.

As we celebrate, we also reflect on the dark history of this country, and the responsibility we as settlers have in supporting reconciliation and resurgence. The complexity, connectedness, and diverse cultures of Indigenous Peoples are deeply connected to this land and have been for tens of thousands of years.

Kids Physio Group is proud to provide kids of all ages and abilities with the care (and FUN!) they need to reach their maximum physical potential from 🌊🏔️coast-to-coast⛰️🌊. Our clinics are located on the traditional, ancestral lands of the following nations and peoples:

EQUIPMENT SPOTLIGHT: STATIONARY BIKES! 🚲

Stationary bikes are an excellent way for school-aged children and teens alike to warm up at the beginning of their physio session.

We love using the time on the bike as an opportunity to get an update from the child about their week and their progress, all while they get their heart rate up. For those rehabilitating an injury, a stationary bike provides the opportunity to gain confidence and get their leg moving, without putting their full weight through their injured limb.

For those learning to ride a bike without training wheels, it can be helpful to build specific strength and endurance.
