Sound familiar?
You keep telling your child to stand straight.
A few minutes later, they are hunched again.
Maybe you first noticed it in a school photo.
Their head sits forward.
Their shoulders look rounded.
They may stand behind other children or get upset when you mention their posture.
You say, “Sit up straight.”
They do.
Then they go back to the same position.
The problem is, reminders only change their posture for a few moments.
They do not tell you why your child keeps sitting or standing that way.
Why does your child keep hunching?
There may be more than one reason.
It could be:
- Growing quickly
- Feeling tired after school
- Sitting for long periods
- Looking down at books and screens
- Stiffness
- A habit
- A position that simply feels easier
The hunch is what you can see.
The assessment helps you understand what may be causing it and what to do next.
