  2. Does your daily commute leave you inflexible and in pain? Highland Physio and Rehab’s skilled physiotherapy in Kitchener can assist you in overcoming back pain due to your drive. Don’t endure another painful ride—book an appointment today and have our experts develop a customized therapy plan.

  3. Properly Position Your Seat Most individuals don’t know that their seat positioning is the source of their back pain. Lumbar support during long drives is essential. Try to position your seat so that your knees are a little below your hips and ensure the lumbar support contacts right at the curve of your lower back

  4. Take Regular Stretch Breaks Even a quick two-minute break can work wonders. If your commute exceeds 30 minutes, try to stop and stretch briefly when possible. Can’t stop? Do some seated stretches at red lights or in traffic—gentle neck rolls, shoulder shrugs, and back twists will help keep your muscles from tightening up.

  5. Strengthen Your Core Basic exercises such as planks and bird-dogs can create support that safeguards your spine during daily drives. All it takes is 10 minutes of core exercises three times a week to make a big difference in the way your back feels after driving.

  6. Invest in Ergonomic Supports A good lumbar cushion can make a big difference to your driving. Contoured or memory foam shapes give you the support where you need it. Seat cushions, too, that encourage good alignment and pressure point reduction, are a boon to long- distance drivers.

  7. Practice Mindful Driving Posture Watch where you’re sitting. Are you leaning forward towards the steering wheel? Slumping to one side? These habits cause uneven stress on your back muscles. Try sitting up straight with relaxed shoulders, and keep your hands on the steering wheel at 9 and 3 o’clock to maintain symmetrical arms.
