The car, what punishment for the back!
Why is it so painful to take the car when your back is fragile and what can be done to improve the situation?Use car seat pads instead!

To think about it there is an explanation but as often, when it comes to pain, we lack lucidity and instead of seeking a solution, we get used to trying to bear the pain as if it were A fatality.

I remember the punishment that it was to make a drive of half an hour every morning, to arrive at the office the tears in the eyes as the pain was intense, the morale in the heels to the idea to have to spend 8 hours sitting on a chair and to repeat the journey in the opposite direction at the end of the day.

It was terrible! To wonder what sense all that could have.

But I'm going astray …

Why does it hurt your back to drive the car when your back is fragile?

Because we sit in a seat with knees higher than the pelvis
Because we are sitting in a seat in which we are sinking
Because you have to keep your legs stretched and your feet on the pedals for practically all the way
Consequences of these 3 points: instead of being able to use the legs and the feet to support the weight of the body, it is the basin which takes all and as more the basin sinks in the seat, all the weight of the part upper body permanently rests exactly where it hurts: lumbar discs.

Throughout the journey …

What to do to prevent back pain in the car?

Ad'just lumbar cushion for car
Best selling among the products designed to relieve back pain in the car, the lumbar cushion ad'just was designed on the basis that the region of the lumbar which must support 2/3 of the weight of the body is a risk area, especially for people who have fragile backs and / or spend a lot of time sitting in a car.

Betterback support for the back in the car

It is a set of seats / backrest, consisting of two rigid boards (but not too much) and whose main advantage is to prevent the entire upper body from sinking into the seat: thanks to the betterback, basin , coccyx and thigh muscles take over and support some of the weight of the upper body, avoiding the lumbar discs to remain crushed under the weight of the spine when sitting in a car.

The upper back stays upright and also rests against a rigid surface to avoid sinking into the backrest without proper support of a conventional car seat.
