Does Over-the-Road Feel Like Over-the-Back?

By Tom Herrin

Logistics, or trucking, is one of the largest employment fields in the country.  Many people take it for granted and don’t think much about it.  It is very demanding and requires rigorous safety measures that must be met in a timely manner.  The constant driving and pressing to get to the destination in safety is a pretty serious grind.  The driver arrives there only to load or unload and head to the next place.  This scenario repeats itself over and over again.  There is little opportunity to get much exercise for long periods of time, so the muscles and joints take a beating.  If this sounds familiar, you are in luck because the relief needed can be yours by visiting a chiropractor.

The Agony of The Trip

Let’s face it, driving a truck is not a vacation.  It is work.  The job requires being behind the wheel for long hours at a time.  While there may be times for a little relaxation, those times are really few and far between.  There is a constant awareness of the potential dangers of the job.  With hands clinched to the wheel, there is an ongoing search for traffic and the best avenues for moving steadily along.  There is also the disadvantage of being restricted in movement.  The confinement of the cab of the truck can prevent adequate circulation.  Most truck drivers have little opportunity for any kind of productive exercise.  If the muscles lack good blood flow, the joints will suffer equally.

A Good Plan Can Provide Relief

Many drivers have a reputation for taking pain medication so they can continue with their jobs.  Fortunately for them, a chiropractor can provide relief with natural treatment.  There is no risk of addiction.  They can receive effective care, and their chiropractor may suggest some exercises that can be done at stops that can help to improve muscles in their ability in their support of those more suspect joints.
