How to Make Your Car Seat Cushion More Comfortable: 5 Tips for Driving Long Distances

Do you frequently travel long distances in your car? Do you feel extremely tired and in-pain at the end of your trips? Are you looking for some creative solutions to deal with this problem? This blog post is for you!

Here are five ways you can make your commute pain-proof:

1) POSITIONING YOUR HEAD PROPERLY

 If you want a comfortable and relaxing travel experience in your car, you need to make sure that your head is properly positioned. 

The position of your head can heighten your back pain (Spine Institute of North America)

A car headrest can be a perfect solution for you. It can keep your head in the most comfortable position and prevent neck and back pain.

2) ALLOWING YOUR NECK TO REST

Long-distance driving can cause neck pain, which can be very annoying.

Neck pain can also cause symptoms of anxiety and depression which can exacerbate your pain. (Mid-Atlantic Spinal Rehab and Chiropractic). 

It can shift your focus off the road and make it difficult for you to stay focused while driving. 

A car seat neck pillow can give much-need relief and support to your neck. It can reduce muscle strain by allowing your neck and shoulder to relax.

3) CORRECTING YOUR POSTURE 

A wrong posture puts extra pressure on your muscles and bones; whereas, a correct posture disperses stress evenly across your back — preventing one area from having to bear excess pressure. 

If you think your car seat isn’t comfortable enough, you can use a car seat cushion. It can naturally align your back by lighting your pelvis higher than your thighs — so that you can sit in a proper posture.

4) SUPPORTING YOUR BACK

When it comes to preventing body pain while driving, it’s not just about sitting in a proper posture — but also about maintaining that posture throughout your journey. A lumbar support pillow can provide extra support to your back so that you can easily maintain a good posture for a long time. This helps reduce muscle strain and alleviate lower back pain. 

You can use a lumbar support cushion along with a seat cushion for ultimate comfort and relaxation.

5) PROVIDING RELIEF TO YOUR HANDS

If you drive for long hours, your hands might ache. You might feel numbness and tingling in your palm or fingers. This is not only painful but also extremely risky because you might not be able to steer your car properly — which increases the chances of road accidents. 

If you want to prevent such problems, you can try The Organised Auto’s pain relief gloves. They can be a perfect solution for you until you find some time for massage, exercise, or physical therapy.
