Most back seat cushions do an only "okay" job of aligning your spine, which is why so many people tend to switch them in and out as they drive. The truth is that no one position is ideal for hours at a stretch, and the best products inevitably reflect a more kinetic approach. Get yourself a static pile-filled cushion, however, and you could soon feel as though you were better off with nothing at all. Our bodies were made to move. When we aren't spending a day in dynamic motion, the fully prostrate position can be a close second when it comes to chiropractic health. The one position that was never supposed to be part of our genetic evolution was the seated one, which is why so many nerve and spinal injuries are today associated with long hours on the job. That's why the latest wave of ergonomic devices were designed to add movement to your sitting posture. The best of these use water and gels to slide material past your aching muscles throughout the day, promoting circulation and adapting instantly as you change positions. The forces that act on your lower spine simply have more places to go. Smart ergonomics is smart living, and those of us who have suffered repetitive stress injuries know just how painful that kind of chronic pain can be. If you want to feel better at work and in the car, you may want to look into some more advanced back support. Many of the best products appear on the Web for less than they would in a store. |
