You spend hours in the car—and your body is suffering for it.
Whether you’re heading to D.C., Baltimore, or just battling Route 15 traffic, commuting is a part of life for many Frederick locals. But when neck, shoulder, or low back pain starts creeping in before you’ve even clocked in for work—or sticks around when you get home—it’s time to take a closer look at what your drive is doing to your body.
Sound familiar?
- You feel stiff or sore when you get out of the car.
- Your neck aches after holding the wheel for too long.
- Your low back tightens up by the end of every drive.
- You’re starting to dread the commute—not just because of traffic, but because of how it makes you feel.
You’re not alone—and you don’t have to just put up with it.
The Real Problem Behind Driving Pain
Long drives in a car aren’t just boring—they’re physically demanding.
Prolonged sitting, limited movement, and poor posture all put extra strain on your spine, joints, and muscles. Over time, this can lead to:
- Neck and back stiffness
- Muscle fatigue and tension
- Poor circulation
- Decreased joint mobility
- Pain that lingers well beyond your commute
Even if your car seat is “ergonomic,” your body isn’t meant to stay in one position for hours—especially if you’re tense, gripping the wheel, or hunched forward.

How Chiropractic Care Helps with Commuting Pain
Here’s how we work with commuters to relieve neck and back pain:

Stiff joints and irritated nerves can result from long hours of sitting. Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper motion and relieve tension, so your spine moves the way it should.

Tight neck, shoulder, and back muscles? We use soft tissue therapy, stretching, and guided mobility work to release tension and improve circulation—so you’re not carrying that stiffness into your day.
3. Strengthen What Supports You
We don’t stop at pain relief. We’ll guide you through easy, personalized strength exercises to improve core stability and postural endurance—key for sitting without discomfort.
4. Optimize Your Driving Position
We’ll help you make simple adjustments to your car setup and posture so your spine is supported and your muscles don’t overwork during your commute.
5. Keep It from Coming Back
