Why Travel Seats Aren’t Designed for Your Body (And What to Do About It)

Why Travel Seats Aren’t Designed for Your Body (And What to Do About It)

EZSLEEPS

Let’s be real - airplane seats aren’t made for humans. They’re made for profit. Tight, shallow, and unsupportive.


The Ergonomic Truth

Your seat forces you into an unnatural posture: hips tilted, neck craned forward, spine unsupported. It’s no wonder your body aches after a few hours.


The Hidden Costs of “Just Dealing With It”

Shoulder tension

Neck stiffness

Lower back pain

Poor circulation

Brain fog


What You Can Do (Even in Economy)

Bring your own support tools (neck, back, feet)

Stretch before and after the flight

Use your bag or jacket for lumbar support

Avoid leaning too far to the side when sleeping


You can’t redesign the seat. But you can redesign how you use it.
