Why Is a Backpack Evaluation Important for Your Child?

As kids head back to school with their heavy textbooks, notebooks, and school supplies, the weight they carry on their backs can significantly impact their spinal health. A poorly fitted or overloaded backpack can lead to various issues, including:

  • Back Pain – Straining under the weight of a heavy backpack can cause discomfort and pain in your child’s back and shoulders.
  • Poor Posture – Carrying an improperly adjusted backpack can contribute to poor posture, which may lead to long-term spinal problems.
  • Muscle Strain – Over time, the strain from carrying a heavy backpack can affect your child’s neck, shoulders, and lower back muscles.
  • Nerve Compression – An ill-fitting backpack can compress nerves, potentially leading to numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms and legs.
