Baby Got Back: Your Guide to the Best Orthopedic Lumbar Support for Cars

In the classic TV show “Seinfeld”, George is acting like a cool guy. He brings a vintage American muscle car to impress a woman, and all is going well until she sees the front seat.

“Is that your orthopedic back pillow?”

“Maybe.”

“Well is it or isn’t it”

“…guess not.”

That’s what we could call economical writing. Humor aside, many of us can empathize with George Costanza. You can have the coolest car in the world, but if it doesn’t offer your back the proper support, driving it will bring you an unwarranted amount of pain.

Getting a properly fitting orthopedic pillow is a great way to make a vehicle truly your own. Think of it as customizing your car precisely to your own body. Having the proper lumbar support can reduce your stress levels, ease strain on your back, neck and head, make you more alert and aware, and make driving a more pleasant experience.

To help you, we scoured Amazon.com and found the most well reviewed lumbar pillows. We looked in multiple categories to ensure that no area of the site would go overlooked (Automotive, Home & Kitchen, Office Products, and Health & Personal Care).
