🎒 Back to school? Don't forget their backs!
Photos by the front door season!
But as your child heads back to school, it’s the perfect opportunity to check that their backpack isn’t putting unnecessary strain on their growing backs, necks and shoulders.
At Parkstone Chiropractic, we recommend:
✅ Use both straps
✅ Keep the backpack close to the back
✅ Carry only what’s needed for each day
✅ Keep heavier items closest to the spine
✅ Stay active and maintain good posture
Small habits can make a big difference to a healthy spine as they grow. 🧒👦👧
