Backpack Awareness Day Events

Sep 1 |

On the third Wednesday of September, we celebrate the American Occupational Therapy Association’s National School Backpack Awareness Day!

At Drayer Physical Therapy Institute, we are excited to hold backpack education events through the month of September!

Join us to learn safety tips to stay protected from back pain throughout life and learn about proper bag usage. We will teach you how to properly choose, pack, lift and carry various types of bags – including backpacks, purses, briefcases and suitcases.
