<![CDATA[Changes in posture that occur during childhood result from incorrect sitting habits, non-ergonomic standing positions, improper backpack use, and the dangers of playing pull-the-chair games, which can cause fracture injuries. If these habits are not corrected early, they will persist into adulthood, potentially causing musculoskeletal system disorders. Early posture education is an effective solution to prevent posture disorders and abnormalities.
