Did you see Arif in the newspaper?

Arif at Cliffs Chiropractor SouthendArif recently appeared in the Colchester Gazette and Southend Basildon Echo. As a trained paediatric chiropractor, Arif is a leading spokesperson in the UK for children’s backcare.

In this article Arif outlines the challenges that our children increasingly face in keeping their backs and bodies healthy and advocates that parents should set a good posture example. So sit up straight everyone! You can read the entire backcare article here.

“Parents are always telling their children to sit or stand straight, but do they look at their own postures in the mirror? Back care in children should
be habit like brushing your teeth, seeing the dentist or opthalmologist.” says Arif.

Arif goes on to warn “Back pain is not just about posture, either. If you sit in a slumped way you are compressing your lungs, your heart needs to work harder to get blood and oxygen around the body and your brain needs oxygen to work. If children are slumped it affects their learning.”
