INCIDÊNCIA DE PROBLEMAS POSTURAIS OCASIONADOS DURANTE A VIDA ESCOLAR NO ENSINO FUNDAMENTAL PÚBLICO: UM ESTUDO BIBLIOGRÁFICO.

Abstract

Good posture is essential for proper biomechanical development, and the lack of it can cause serious musculoskeletal damage during school life. This study aims to present the important connection between school life in elementary school in the municipal public school and the postural changes of students. It is based on studies by means of bibliographic research in academic studies published in the form of articles in Scientific Journals on the subject of free access and master's and doctoral research available at the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations on the subject studied. In the first research phase, the following keywords were used to search for dissertations and theses: postural problems in elementary education; body posture at school and postural education - elementary school. And, in the second survey, the following keywords were used: postural diseases in elementary school. Studies have shown that a large number of elementary school children and adolescents allege muscle pain and discomfort, which often lasts into adulthood. Prevention practices and interventions by health professionals should be part of the daily lives of these students, in order to identify early and correct bad habits, avoiding postural injuries and thus ensuring a better quality of life. Thus, this study aims to contribute to the expansion of the debate on this topic in the school space.
