We are concerned
The scale of this issue is unknown
Never Before Have We Had A Generation Using Devices From Such A Young Age
About us
Primary Alignment was founded when two health professionals began seeing a trend in children presenting with pain in their clinical practice
Our story
In our clinical practice we were increasingly facing young children and adolescents suffering from pain and discomfort that we would ordinarily only see in older age groups. Much of this was due to the posture these children were adopting when having screen time. Alarmingly, we found it harder to help these children the longer the issue had been occurring. Frustrated by this we wanted to create something that addressed the issue at it’s root cause.
Primary Alignment was created to be this solution. To provide early detection of posture-related pain and discomfort and provide suitable interventions to help these children. To highlight the growing issue of poor posture due to an increase in the use of digital devices worldwide.
