Our chiropractor at Lower Cape Chiropractic knows that school is not the best thing for your back. Many of you reading this may have memories of high school, carrying those heavy backpacks around all day, not to mention anything else that you brought with you, such as a purse,  bookbag, or gym bag. It seems like you have to bring half of your possessions to class with you every day. For many of us, this is where our back pain, shoulder pain, and neck pain started, carrying a whole library around with us for eight hours a day.

Can Chiropractic Care Help Pain Caused by Backpacks?

Some parents are concerned about chiropractic care for teenagers and children since the child's body is still developing. The truth is that not only is it not dangerous for youngsters, but it can also be very beneficial in preventing minor back problems from becoming more serious in their adulthood.

Furthermore, a chiropractor can provide proper care for the spine, specific exercises, and posture changes to lower the chances of further injuries and misalignment. Many of the problems that we face in adulthood stem from poor care of our spines during our youth. By addressing these issues early, your child may be spared years of back pain later on in life.
