the right reflexes :
Avez-vous déjà ressenti une douleur lancinante dans le bas du dos après avoir conduit pendant des heures ? Ou peut-être vous êtes-vous réveillé avec des douleurs dans le cou après un long voyage en voiture ? Si vous avez répondu « oui » à l’une de ces questions, vous n’êtes pas seul. Le mal de dos est un problème courant chez les conducteurs et les passagers, et cela peut rendre les trajets en voiture très inconfortables. Mais ne vous inquiétez pas, de nombreuses solutions existent.
Lower back pain, stiff neck, tense shoulders: back pain in the car is not inevitable. By adopting a few simple reflexes, you can take care of your spine.
Beaucoup de facteurs agissent sur un mal de dos en voiture, souvent une mauvaise posture tenue pendant trop longtemps et l’absence de mouvement sont des facteurs important du mal de dos.
Seat adjustment :
To adjust the seat-to-pedal distance, the vehicle must be at a complete standstill. The driver is firmly seated in the seat. If the legs are outstretched, the seat is too far away.
If the knees are at an angle of less than 90°, the seat is too close together. For optimal foot position, the heel should touch the floor and the toe should press the pedal.
To adjust the distance of the seat from the steering wheel, the shoulders must remain in contact with the backrest. Hands are placed on the steering wheel in the "10:10" position.
Arms slightly bent. If they are tense, move the seat closer. If the elbows are at an angle greater than 60°, move the seat back. To fine-tune focus, you can also adjust the height and depth of the steering wheel.
A salutary gesture to protect the neck and shoulder joints.
Backache in the car - the solution:
- Backrest and headrest tilt adjustment
To avoid lumbar and hip pain, the torso should be straight (parallel to the steering wheel) and at an angle of around 90° to the legs. This means adjusting the angle of the backrest to find the right inclination.
To support your cervical vertebrae and reduce back pain on long journeys and improve your comfort, you can find on our Macote.fr store a high quality Alcantara headrest to support your cervical vertebrae and reduce back pain in the car.
If the backrest is too straight, the lower spine suffers. If the backrest is tilted too far forward, the hip joint may be overstretched. If the backrest is tilted too far back, it can cause tension in the cervical region.
When the head rests on the headrest, the field of vision must be unobstructed, and there must be no tension in the cervical vertebrae or shoulders.
