Today, the average person will spend more than half of each day in a sitting position. Commuting by car, riding a train or an airplane, working in the office or even relaxing at home, we all spend many hours sitting.
Though it sounds comfortable, the majority of people will experience back pain or muscle tension due to continuous sitting. The issue is this: when the thighs and lower back are in such a position for prolonged periods of time, there is a reduction a sometimes even a cut off of blood circulation, which causes long-term problems such as Deep-vein thrombosis (also known as DVT and or as economy class syndrome).
DVT is the formation of a blood clot inside a deep vein of the leg or the deep veins of the pelvis. There is a significant risk of the thrombus traveling to the lungs causing a pulmonary embolizm. Approximately 600,000 new DVT cases are diagnosed each year in the United States with as many as 20 million patients having had a prior DVT.
Unfortunately DVT is only one problem among many health issues caused by improper blood circulation.
Some symptoms of poor blood circulation are:
• Neuropathy, tingling, burning and numbness in the feet or hands
• Cramping or pain in the legs
• Tired, aching feet, or swelling of the feet or legs
• Frequent unexplained headaches
• Low energy
• Lack of stamina
• Cold hands and feet
• Poor vision
Some doctors recommend using medicine to prevent poor blood circulation, but it may cause damage to some organs.
To dispense with this problem, the company Traffic Pillow, Inc. created safety-medical and just medical cushion devices that is portable, lightweight and fits any situation where you might find yourself.
Two U.S. patents have been issued for the Traffic Pillow and other five are pending worldwide.
The Traffic Pillow makes prolonged periods of sitting a comfortable and enjoyable experience by elevating the leg slightly, which removes pressure and allows proper blood circulation. Hip and knee discomfort disappears while sitting. The Traffic Pillow is recommended by medical professionals and healthcare providers.
In addition to that, your reaction time during driving will decrease due to better upper leg movement. The study shows that if a vehicle is traveling 65 miles per hour, the use of the Traffic Pillow can decrease breaking distance up to 12 feet which equal the size of a medium car.
You will feel the difference from the very first day. Whether you are working in the office, taking a short trip or a long cross-country ride on an airplane, the Traffic Pillow ensures maximum comfort the whole way.
Oftentimes, we hear stories about people who have stepped off a plane only to feel intense pain in their upper legs and lower back due to sitting in a stationary position for so long. While many complain about their seats being too small, we believe that making seats larger is not necessary to relieve the discomfort.
This is where the Traffic Pillow can make a difference. The Traffic Pillow maintains your legs in one position so you don’t have to use excess muscle movement to keep them from sliding outwards. The Traffic Pillow keeps legs slightly elevated, thus eliminating pressure and increasing efficiency of blood flow. This last use is pivotal because it helps to avoid an improper blood circulation.
For anyone who spends a good portion of his or her day driving in stop and go traffic, it’s no secret that such constant aggravated muscle movement can cause tension and pain in the lower back. Many who suffer may not even guess that it could be due to the stress of the daily commute.
Again, the Traffic Pillow can help in this situation. With the thigh in a locked and comfortable position, the legs and feet are able to move easily from gas to brake, thus eliminating the strain on your lower back. Virtually all who used the Traffic Pillow during our 3 year testing phase responded with positive comments about the load lifted off those muscles. With increased muscle efficiency and circulation, any driver can become much more skillful at reacting quicker and avoiding the hazards we encounter on the road every day.
