Lumbar Support Cushions
Long days at the office, taking a long car ride to the relatives and sitting on a plane getting away for a vacation - what do all of these have in common? You will find yourself seated for extended periods of time during each activity. Sitting down creates presure on the spine and in particular, on the discs and curves in your back. Your spine is a big shock absorber, as you walk, run or do any activity, it flexes and bends to cushion the bouncing, reducing the overall shock to your body.
Sitting for a long time distorts the curves and compresses the discs which do most of the shock absorption and allow your spine to flex. All of this can cause pinching of the nerves in your spinal cord which can lead to numbness, tingling and back pain.
While you aren't going to be able to cut out sitting from your dailey activities, a lumbar support cushion will help you create and maintain proper spinal curves for your lower and middle back. Our cushions are available in many different sizes, shapes and colors to accomodate your needs for a healthy back and healthy lifestyle.
