Tips for taking care of your neck & back when driving

Just before you get ready to start a long drive, do some simple stretching exercises - especially on your back area. Also, make sure that the car seat is angled in a position that gives you the most comfort and support. Use a rolled towel, pillow or a lumbar support behind the lower back when driving. 

You can also adjust the neck support on your seat so that you can rest your head back if necessary. Walking around the vehicle or take a short walk. During these breaks, try to stretch your muscles as much as you can to prevent them from getting too stiff or achy. It is important to get out of the car and stretch after every 30 or 60 minutes of driving- this can loosen your muscles after sitting in a confined position for a long time.
