🎒✨It’s back to school time!! ✨ 🎒
Did you know that the way your child wears their backpack can make a big difference for their posture, comfort, and spinal health?
✅ Even weight distribution – Wearing both straps helps prevent shoulder, neck, and back strain.
✅ Better posture – A snug fit keeps the backpack close to the body, reducing slouching.
✅ Less fatigue – Proper support means less stress on muscles and joints.
✅ Fewer injuries – Prevents long-term strain that can lead to back and shoulder problems.
✅ Improved focus – Kids who feel comfortable carrying their backpacks are more ready to learn!
Dr. Zak and Dr. Katey each have multiple kids in school and know how important it is to help kids (and parents!) build healthy habits early. If you notice your child struggling with heavy or awkward backpacks, we’re here to help support them!
