May is Correct Posture Month

Does your child carry a heavy backpack over one shoulder? Do your children spend hours hunched over a computer keyboard? Correct Posture Month, sponsored by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA), encourages you to talk to your local doctor of chiropractic about ways to alleviate poor posture. A doctor of chiropractic can tell you if your child's slouching is a bad habit or a warning signal, or if a heavy backpack is going to cause future spinal problems.
