Main Street Chiropractic will be hosting a free workshop for children and their parents entitled Pack For Your Back, on Tuesday, August 4 at 6:30 p.m. at Main Street Chiropractic, 13 Chester Avenue in Medford.
During this event, attendees will learn how to properly choose, fit, and wear a backpack. While backpacks are commonplace, almost 50 percent of school-aged children report back pain due to wearing a backpack that is too heavy, which can contribute to misalignments of the spine and interference in the central nervous system. Because the central nervous system is the master controller of the entire body, when it is not functioning properly, both physical and psychological symptoms can worsen, including asthma, joint pain, ADHD, headaches, and more.
