Is getting healthier and more active one of your New Year's resolutions? The American Chiropractic Association shares simple strategies that can help you make the transition from a body at rest to a body in motion.
As students return to school this fall—many in person for the first time in more than a year—choosing the right backpack and wearing it properly can help to alleviate pain. Studies have shown that backpacks exceeding 10% of a child’s body weight may cause not only back pain but also forward-head posture.
It’s that time of year when weekend warriors are training for their next big race—whether that be a 5k, half marathon or full marathon. Many runners feel invincible, thinking they’ll be free from injuries or power through the pain, but in reality, the strenuous competition can take a toll on joints and muscles—no matter your age.

Today’s students are susceptible to a range of musculoskeletal injuries, such as neck and back pain, as a result of some of the equipment and devices they frequently use: backpacks, smartphones and other mobile devices. As the end of summer approaches, parents can help their children avoid the “aches and pains” of going back to school by providing some practical advice, according to the American Chiropractic Association (ACA).
The warmer weather brings more chances for parents to get outdoors and ramp up physical activity with their little ones. From biking and hiking to walking and jogging, today’s parents are keeping fit and bonding with their babies in the process. With an array of products unheard of a generation ago - like baby carriers, joggers and trailers - even the tiniest among us are enjoying the great outdoors. But while these items can make life easier and more enjoyable for both parent and child, they can be the cause of pain and injury if not used properly.
