Do you know how much your child’s backpack weighs?

The average middle/high schooler’s backpack weighs in at a minimum of 25 lbs!

Add that weight slung over just one shoulder like most kids carry their backpacks, and you have the recipe for the spine and nervous system disaster! The weigh and posture combination can put endangering stress and pressure on the spinal cord and nerves, which can affect the child’s overall health greatly!

It has been proven that the stress on children’s spines due to carrying heavy bags, using poor posture and bad sitting habits, cause subluxations in developing spines.

So what can you do about it?
