Ergoccyx with memory foam for Vehicles

Driving often leads to back pain due to several factors:

• Prolonged sitting
• Poor posture
• Shocks and vibrations

While seated, the sacrum and coccyx are submitted to constant pressure. This pressure travels up the entire spine to the neck and can cause back pain during car rides. For people already experiencing coccyx pain or back pain, sitting exacerbates the discomfort.

Another challenge in cars is that seats are often too low and reclined backward. In this position, the knees are above the hips, the spine curves forward, and the intervertebral discs compress. This compression can pinch the nerves descending along the spine, exacerbating existing conditions (sciatica, neuralgia, herniated disc).

Vibrations and shocks caused by road irregularities also contribute to back pain. Bumps and micro-vibrations from the vehicle reverberate throughout the cabin and the body, further increasing the risk of back pain.

For people with conditions such as sciatica, herniated discs or collapsed vertebrae, these factors amplify existing pain and make car rides even more uncomfortable.

Ergoccyx for Vehicles is an ergonomic seating cushion specifically designed to relieve back pain while driving and adapted for conditions like sciatica, herniated discs, or vertebral compression. To relieve back pain during car rides, Ergoccyx Vehicle acts in several ways:

• Thicker at the back than at the front, it helps adopt a dynamic posture (straighter back, open pelvis).
• Coccyx pain cushion: The cut-out at the back of the cushion relieves the coccyx and sacrum, reducing pressure and discomfort.
• Anti-vibration and shock-absorbing cushion: Our high viscosity fluid absorbs shocks and vibrations and reduce painful pressures.
• Help with conditions such as sciatica, lumbar pain, herniated discs, vertebral compression, ischial pain, cervical pain, etc.
• Pain relief with cold therapy by placing the fluid pouch in the freezer.

The memory foam version of the Ergoccyx car cushion features the same design as our original model (High-Resilience foam and High-Viscosity fluid) and retains the same shock and vibration absorption properties.

The added memory foam layer creates a very soft surface that smooths out the feel of the high-density foam used as the cushion’s base—essential for blocking vibrations transmitted through the seat. The memory foam also helps reduce compression across all contact areas (buttocks and thighs), whereas the non-memory version provides more localized relief at the fluid insert under the buttocks.

This memory foam car cushion is recommended for anyone looking for a very soft and plush seat cushion.
