Heavy School Bags - A Pain in the Back!

Heavy School Bags - A Pain in the Back!

While a backpack may look great hanging off one shoulder; when its filled to the brim with textbooks, sports gear, and a laptop, the weight begins to stack up. Your child's spine could be in for a tough time coping with all the increased stress, and when you add poor posture, lack of exercise and hours of computer time each day into the mix, it's no wonder that almost half (46.1%) of school-aged children suffer from back and/or neck pain.
