Sitting in a car for extended periods of time keeps your body in one position for longer than is healthy. The lack of movement causes the muscles in your back to stiffen and even spasm. If you can, we always suggest, taking a fifteen-minute break every two hours to stretch, move, and walk around. People prone to or with chronic back pain really do need to make sure to take these breaks to avoid further complications. Other than stopping to stretch, you can also buy lumbar support to help keep your back feeling good while you\u2019re in the car. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a list of highly rated options to help keep you comfortable and pain free during your shift:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/37j37uP\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LoveHome Memory Foam Lumbar Support<\/a>&nbsp;is one of the most highly rated on Amazon.
