Hi.....I found so much information in my notes on back pain that I decided to make another page on it....Kes
LOWER BACK PAIN RELIEF is EASY

For Complete page on his method...click link above. A sample is below:
MY SIMPLE BACK PAIN RELIEF TRAINING PROGRAM
With your feet planted firmly about 18" apart (for stability) rotate your head and shoulders to the left as far as you can until you feel tension or some pain in a few muscles of your neck and/or back. Hold for a few seconds and slowly twist in the opposite direction and hold a few seconds. Those few seconds are giving your brain repeated signals of the normal and maximum allowed muscle tension! Do for at least 4 to 5 minutes a day and you will get relief from most lower and upper back pain and other back related pain problems!
If sedentary, do it at least twice a day. It is easier to do properly if you clasp your hands on top of your head. I like to see how far I can aim my elbow behind my back and then twist the head more to see as far behind my back as I can, in each direction. This way you attain maximum rotation of both the neckbone and backbone. Repeat this for 5 minutes but start out doing less if you get worse back pain. Rotating is not much exercise, so you should not tire!
REMEMBER, you are TRAINING YOUR BRAIN as to how much tension each muscle is allowed before it causes pain, not trying to tear an already damaged muscle or tendon. DO NOT TWIST OR SURGE RAPIDLY, as that causes an automatic compensating response from your brain to tense up some other muscles, which could cause more back pain problems.
IF YOU WISH, THIS CAN BE DONE WHILE SITTING UPRIGHT IN A CHAIR, but you lose the training to your ankles, knees and hip muscles that a full twist in a standing position will give.
FOR BACK PAIN RELIEF - DO THE BACKBONE TWIST DAILY!
One final thing, water in your spinal disks is the supporting medium for 75% of your upper body and is the sole lubricant for back or neck motion! According to Dr. F. Batmanghelidj, author of "The Bodies Many Cries for Water, 1992", few people drink enough water and being dehydrated reduces the lubrication of your back and neck joints and may be your sole cause of persistent back and neck pain! For this lubrication to take effect, you must also get some exercise or motion of the joints, to circulate the lubricant (water). Neck pain in particular can be caused by lack of motion, since the weight of the head will force water out of the disks making the neck stiff and painful.
You see, my simple exercise not only trains the muscles and brain for proper spinal alignment but also improves lubrication of the joints, to prevent pain! The nice thing about these treatments are that you get relief from upper and lower back pains in just hours or days, not months, and thus are more likely to keep with the program. It truly works - wouldn't you like to get rid of those nagging back pains? Try it, pain relief is just minutes away!
TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH, FRED
Doctors are not taught nutrition in medical school. I've found that
diet is a strong contributing factor to the genesis of back pain. Caffeine
and nicotine are central nervous system stimulants. They cause the central
nervous system to fire which, in turn, causes back muscles to tighten and
contract. That causes the spine to compress and restrict the blood flow
to the muscles of the back. Fast foods are low residue and tend toward constipation
and gas. We're not getting enough fluids or fiber. Eating too much meat
tends to putrefy. And, the gas and toxins that accumulate in the intestines
have a direct effect on the back. The intestines are pressed up right against
the back.

Lifting with the knees is insufficient advice to prevent lifting damage, and rocking back in a chair actually helps unload the spine.
Use tiger balm on opposite side of spine from the place where pain is located.
Stress can cause and aggravate back pain.
DO THIS EXERCISE DAILY TO HELP YOUR BACK!
FACING WEST...Stand with your feet shoulder width apart...Point the toes slightly inward...RAISE ONE HAND as high up in the air as you can comfortably reach...then bring that hand down and raise the other hand.
