As we welcome September, we hope you’ve had a wonderful summer filled with relaxation and fun. As the season changes, it’s the perfect time to refocus on your health and wellness. In this month’s newsletter, we’ll be sharing exciting updates, helpful tips, and important reminders to support your journey toward optimal health.

Back-to-School Health Tips

September often means back-to-school season, and whether you’re a student or a parent, it’s important to be mindful of your spine health. Carrying heavy backpacks, long hours of sitting, and the stress of new routines can all take a toll on your body. Here are a few tips to keep your spine healthy:

• Backpack Safety: Choose a backpack with wide, padded straps and always wear it on both shoulders. The backpack should weigh no more than 10-15% of the student’s body weight.
• Posture Check: Ensure your child’s workstation is ergonomically set up to avoid slouching. A supportive chair and a desk at the right height can make a big difference.
• Regular Breaks: Encourage short breaks to stand up, stretch, and move around. This helps reduce the strain on the spine from prolonged sitting.

If you or your child is complaining of back pain or stiffness, it may be time for a chiropractic check-up. We’re here to help ensure their spine is in alignment and ready for the school year.
