Back to School? Time for a Spinal Check!
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is back-to-school season a good time for a chiropractic checkup?
Back-to-school season means kids are starting sports and carrying heavy backpacks, both of which can affect spinal alignment and posture. A chiropractic checkup ensures their spine is moving correctly and starts the school year on the right foot.
Which sports make it important for kids to get their spines checked?
Activities like football, cheerleading, and wrestling (which often starts a couple of months into the school year) can put stress on the spine. Chiropractic care helps maintain proper alignment to support performance and reduce the risk of injury.
How can backpacks affect my child’s posture?
Heavy backpacks often cause kids to change their posture, leaning forward or to one side, which can strain their spine. Chiropractic adjustments help correct and prevent these posture issues.
Should parents also consider chiropractic care during the school year?
Yes. The school year brings extra demands for parents — from homework help to busy schedules — which can lead to neck pain, back pain, and tension. Regular adjustments can help parents feel and function at their best.
Back-to-School Checkups
Hello everybody, I'm Dr. Aaron Seton with The Chiropractic Place, and it's that time of year again where everybody is starting to head back to school. So this is a great time to be getting checked, get your spines adjusted, and here's why.
Kids, Sports, and Backpacks
We have a lot of kids starting back at their sports, whether it's football, cheerleading, even wrestling gets started in a couple of months.
It's a great time to get them checked just to make sure that their spine is aligned and moving correctly, not to mention the backpacks are always a problem. They're very heavy, kids start to kind of change their posture. So why not start them out on the right foot, make sure that everything in their spine is clear and everything's aligned.
Parents: Manage the School-Year Demands
And also for you parents, there's a lot of increased demands for you during the school year, helping kids with homework, making sure they're getting to school and getting to bed on time. So if you're starting to notice some neck pain, back pain, stuff like that starting to build up from the increased demand on you, that's another reason for you to get in and get adjusted and keep yourself functioning at your very best during this very important time of year. I'm Dr. Aaron Seton with The Chiropractic Place.
