As it was done last year, the campaign promoted by the Collegiate Medical Organization and the Kovacs Foundation with El Tebeo de el Back has been launched, where children from 6 years old are taught what are the appropriate habits to enjoy good back health, preventing possible conditions that may arise from poor postures or lack of exercise.
We already know that many of the ailments and diseases that are suffered in an adult state are a consequence of bad habits and bad practices, whether food or physical suffered during childhood and adolescence, knowledge and respect for the body, how much before it consolidates in a child, the better it will be in adulthood.
One of the best practices that rThey recommend performing to avoid possible back pain is physical exercise in family, but not only from time to time, if not on a regular basis, in addition to providing our children with a favorable physical state, we force ourselves to benefit. It should not be taken as an obligation, it is convenient to approach it as a fun and fun activity. Exercising the muscles will ensure that children maintain greater muscular strength that supports their body, while their spine acquires its definitive shape. On the other hand, sport at a competitive level is not recommended, especially if you are not under the supervision of a professional, as this may increase the risk of back pain.
Other topics of interest that are collected in this campaign is the good use of backpacks, a topic that we have already touched on Babies and more, as well as adequate school furniture (chairs and desks).
We add a topic that we have talked about today, Pilates for children. What other recommendations can you give us to take care of our children's backs?
