When considering auto seat cushions and car seat supports, the most important factors include: • Lumbar Support Lumbar Support Lumbar support is critical because being seated like this...
...with the spine curved and flexed forward for long periods of time sets up several problems in the spine: • The mid and lower back muscles become strained in an attempt to hold the body upright Over time, these problems can lead to significant, even extreme lower back pain. Much better for the positioning of the spine to be like this...
Sturdiness and Comfort Both foam sturdiness and comfort have been resolved by the folks at Tempur-Pedic and other makers of memory foam. While there are high quality, durable foams on the market other than memory foam, none of them can match the pressure-relieving capability of this visco-elastic material. Originally invented by NASA for use by astronauts, this extraordinary material absorbs and distributes body weight for maximum comfort. And instead of becoming squashed down over time, it returns to its original shape after use. Recommended Auto Seat Cushions McCarty’s Sacro-Ease Car Seat Supports are one of the most respected names in the business. They take the their name from the sacrum bone at the base of the spine. And “ease for the sacrum” is one of the major features Sacro-Ease offers. When supported by Sacro Ease Auto Seat Cushions, the hips are "anchored" to the seat's backrest, rather than slumped. Therefore, the spine is held in a natural upright position, relieving lumbar pressure. Back pain is then greatly reduced or, most often, completely eliminated. Sacro-Ease offers many options to choose from. Here I’ve focused in on a few of my personal favorites. Click on any of the images for more information. Sacro Ease Super Deluxe Model 2000 With a lot of extra padding in addition to their traditional steel frame and rubber construction, the Deluxe Model 2000 Seat Cushion is one of McCarty's best. Sacro Ease Deluxe Memory Foam Back Support With the introduction of the visco-elastic memory foam, in addition to their traditional steel frame and rubber construction, the Sacro-Ease Back Support Cushions have risen to the top as the best models McCarty's offers, and quite possibly the best seat support made anywhere in the world. Sacro Ease Car Seat Cushions Simply one of the most effective ways to "rebuild" an unsupportive seat or chair, the Sacro Ease Coccyx Cut-Out upgraded models add an extra 1" of padding, and for some, a much needed cutout for those sensitive parts of the body. Sacro Ease MiniRest Lumbar Car Seat Cushion The Mini-Rest back support may be a good choice if you feel your car seat bottom is firm and supportive, and only need an adjustable lumbar back support.
