40 million children and teens carry a bookbag each dayThe American Chiropractic Association (ACA) , believes that carrying an overweight bookbag or backpack is a contributing factor to back pain in children today and urges the use of ergonomically correct bookbags as a solution. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the use of bookbags or back carriers resulted in over 6,000 injuries in 1999 alone. The American Occupational Therapy association has recommended that bookbag loads carried by students be limited to 15% of a child's body weight. While teachers assign the same quantity of books to each student , their body sizes differ, which results in different weight distribution causing the child to carry the bag at different angles. This is one of the factors resulting in chronic back pain in children. The use of a pull bookbag redistributes the weight putting less stress on the spine. written by: Dr. Ron Marinaro, Chiropractor
