Summary

This study is testing whether Pilates exercises can reduce pain and strengthen back muscles in children aged 12-16 who have backpack syndrome—pain and poor posture from carrying heavy backpacks. About 140 kids will be randomly assigned to do Pilates or continue their usual activities. Researchers will measure pain levels and how long kids can hold a back endurance test before and after the program.
