College Park Chiropractic Treatment For Truck Drivers | AICA College ParkDriving big rig trucks and 18-wheelers for a living can take a significant toll on the body. Sitting for long periods, leaning over a steering wheel, and the stress of transporting thousands of pounds worth of materials can cause a series of health complications that have long-term implications. Fortunately, our College Park Chiropractors have advice and treatment that can help professional truck drivers live healthier.

Staying Healthy

A few simple actions professional truck drivers can take to maintain positive health as they drive for eight or more hours at a time include:

  • Adjust your grip on the steering wheel several times each hour
  • Keep your hands relaxed when gripping the steering wheel
  • Add a cover to the steering wheel to keep your hands comfortable
  • Position the driver’s seat so that your arms are slightly bent and your back is set in an upright position
  • Make sure that your knees are even with your hips
  • Try to keep your elbows positioned close to each side of your chest when holding the steering wheel
  • Keep your body set at a 110-degree angle
  • Use a seat cushion to reduce vibrations
