Backpack Safety

A Backpack is an important part of getting ready for the first day of school – Here is information on how to use them properly

The Ontario Chiropractic Association puts out information regarding backpack safety each year. Backpacks are an important part of a child’s school life, but can negatively impact their spinal health if not used correctly.

We want our kids to grow up without injuring their spines!

• Prevention is Key
• Pack your bag properly
