When I was a delivery driver I started to develop mild back pains and stomach cramps. What kind of therapy do you recommend?

A: Since a driver is sitting for a large portion of the day, the best thing he/she can do is take frequent stretch breaks. This gives muscles a chance to break the cycle of being shortened. Over time sitting the same way actually trains your muscles to hold the position making the muscles shorter and contributing to less than ideal posture. Frequent breaks help interrupt that process.
