Did you know...50.3% of school aged children present with posture disorders?  41.6% of children experience back pain from prolonged sitting and neck pain from smartphone/tablet use. 

When your child tilts their head forward because they’re bent over a phone or tablet, the angle of the head puts additional strain on the muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the neck. For every degree that the head flexes forward, more weight is added to the cervical spine.

Join us for a FREE workshop on Thursday, April 11 at the St. Tammany Parish Hospital Parenting Center at 11:00 AM.  Dr. Curtis will be giving a presentation on proper stretching techniques for children and tips on how to correct postural issues.  RSVP today!  Light refreshments and snacks will be provided.  985.893.2223
