They're also very good at helping you figure out what set off your pain in the first place to help avoid it in the future or give you exercises to strengthen your other muscles so this one doesn't take the brunt of the abuse next time.<BR/><BR/>Good luck! I hope you're better soon. Perhaps "the guy" might be willing to help massage out that pain? ;)Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18003026.post-64620786618956055612007-05-09T11:04:00.000-04:002007-05-09T11:04:00.000-04:00Oh seeing you hate needles, there is study that o...Oh seeing you hate needles, there is study that our yoga studio reported on on how people with back pain were helped just by using yoga more than those those who used anything else. Don't start today of course, but perhaps Pooh can put you through some moves when you feel better. <BR/><BR/>Find a good studio that is JUST yoga so they can help you modify as you have an ongoing back problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18003026.post-65653634729891515842007-05-09T11:02:00.000-04:002007-05-09T11:02:00.000-04:00Acupuncture and chiropractic.

A tennis ball is usually about right but with REALLY bad back spasms, you might want to start with something softer so that you don't have so much pressure on the back. Use the tennis balls evenly across the back (why the sock) so that you get even pressure.<BR/><BR/>Too? Try it on a mattress so that it sinks in more and then gradually move up to the floor.<BR/><BR/>It is normal for that to be achy and sort of hurt--but if it doesn't hurt like a good massage and if it's too intense you are putting too much pressure too fast and either get a softer ball or a softer place to start out.
