A sedentary lifestyle takes its toll on our health. Prostatitis, osteochondrosis, hemorrhoids, scoliosis, and unpleasant back pain, follow on the heels of those who, for work or other reasons, spend most of the day sitting. Our body is not evolutionarily prepared for prolonged "sitting," so a few hours of sitting for a couple of years is guaranteed to have negative consequences for the body.
Driving a car significantly reduces the physical activity of the person, which negatively affects his musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. It should be understood that the design of vehicle seats, generally comfortable, is developed without taking into account the requirements of orthopedists for this type of product. Here seat cushions play a significant role.
Car manufacturers, especially modern models, care about the comfort of drivers and passengers. For this purpose, special configurations of seats are installed in cars, after which there should be no back pain, neck pain, or numbness of the legs.
The cushion reduces the negative effects of constant vibration on the spine. Good cushions also have a massage effect, not only reducing the load but also stimulating the muscles, preventing congestion, which is well known to everyone as stiff muscles.
Of course, this is not a cure-all, and if a person already has problems with the spine, solving them only with the help of orthopedic bedding is not possible. But it is under force to get rid of constant discomfort and back pain. Good cushions on the driver seat put in the correct position reduce the load on the lumbar spine, coccyx, and pelvic organs. It also helps to normalize blood circulation, thus avoiding leg pain and numbness.
In order not to make a mistake when buying, the cushion on the car seat should be tested on yourself. For this purpose, 5-10 minutes will be enough: it is enough to put the product under your back and sit for a while, leaning on it. At the same time, you should pay attention to possible stiffness and discomfort.
