Bad Posture Is Detrimental To Your Kids - Here's A Simple Way To Prevent It


Chiropractic has been getting popular these days. Not only because we have grown to accept such treatment, it also means we have become more aware of our posture problems - misaligned spine, strained neck muscles, unbalanced shoulders, etc. This is particularly so in our urban living lifestyle where we tend to sit more.

Having recognised the importance of having good posture, it makes a lot of sense for us, as parents, to ensure our children maintain a good posture especially in their key developmental years. 



When our children start formal education in primary school, they would need to sit down very often to do written work. When they are forced to sit down in adults' chairs, using adults' desk, they are forced to accommodate to the rigidity of this kind of desk and chair. So they slouch, their arms being raised too high or the written assignments placed to near their eyes. As a result, they hunch, develop tension to their neck and become short-sighted. It is thus, very important to invest in good writing desk and chair for our growing kids so that all these will not be compromised.


ErgoBloom comes in blue and pink

I was introduced to this local brand - ErgoEdge recently. They sell ergonomic desks and chairs from kids to adults. The ErgoBloom range of kids study desk is designed to literally grow up with our kids. Almost everything on it is adjustable - desk's height, desk's angle, chair's height, chair's depth, etc, so as to ensure it always fits our kids' body perfectly.

Angled top to prevent reflected light/sunray to reduce the risk of astigmatism, myopia and fatigue

The BloomDesk has features such as angled table-top to reduce strain to the neck and prevent slouching. The desk surface is non-reflective, therefore, it reduces the light and sunray reflecting into the child's eyes. This helps to reduce the risk of astigmatism, myopia and eye fatigue. The ErgoBloom set also comes with various accessories such as bookshelf, wristpad and footrest to help enhance a child's study space, providing him/her with more comfort for longer study time and efficient learning. 

One key feature of the BloomChair is the split backrest design. I really love how its flexible split backrest wraps around our back gently and reacting even to micro shift in body weight, reducing the pressure and strain to the back by 75% so as to give the support that we need while sitting straight. Furthermore, I, being an OCD mom, am happy to know that the chair cover can be removed and washed!


The wheels can be locked if need to

Undeniably, a high level of comfort and ergonomics helps our children to concentrate better and thus more efficient in doing their homework. An investment like this is worthwhile when we view it as a long-term benefit.
