๐๐ Back-to-School Tips from Southeastern Orthopaedic Specialists Physical Therapy Center ๐๐
As students gear up for the new school year, itโs important to keep health and wellness in mindโboth in the classroom and on the field! Here are a few quick tips from our team to help your student stay safe and strong this school year:
โ
Backpack Safety โ Choose a backpack with wide, padded straps and wear it on both shoulders. Keep the load less than 10โ15% of body weight.
โ
Stay Active โ Balance classroom time with regular movement breaks to improve posture and focus.
โ
Student-Athlete Care โ Warm up and stretch before practices and games, and listen to your body to avoid overuse injuries.
โ
Healthy Habits โ Stay hydrated, fuel up with nutritious snacks, and aim for consistent sleep.
Wishing all of our patients, families, and community students a safe and successful school year! ๐ โ๏ธ
