p26 weekender april 30 1994 ha mitawf spinal health week may 1 to 7 children learn a healthy spine is essential to good health and wellbeing in order to benefit from healthy habits later in life its important to establish them at an early age thats common knowledge some daily routines like brushing our teeth come so naturally we dont even think about it we just do it but dental health is not the only health routine that needs to be learned early in life thats why the ontario chiropractic association has developed its unique spinal health good health and general well- being and to foster good

the greek words xheir and praktikis meaning done by hand it is a natural approach to health based several hours at a stretch although up to that point in their lives remaining still in a chair was a relatively rare occurrence suddenly they will develop new postural habits many of which are not healthy but will stay with them the rest of their lives a lot of children have never had a spinal exam
