American’s suffering from severe back pain; must start heavy regimen of prescription medication, watch 10hours of TV and eat 3 Big Macs w/extra cheese daily followed by visit to HMO approved cardiologist. If you don’t have HMO then call Obama and whine about not having access to health care till he kisses your fat and tells you what a good little consumer you are. More Govt + Pharmaceutical Corps.+your fat ass=America in last place 4ever.

I’ve been doing this on my own, kind of building off a few ground stretches. I was so excited to see it done properly and with ideas for how to get more out of it. THANKS. I’ve been looking for decent lower back pain yoga stretches and this set is awesome.

If you have low …
If you have low back pain, mid-back pain, or whatever it may be, there is a really great read called “Healing Back Pain” by Dr. John Sarno. It conveys the most Responsible Content on the matter that I have ever come across and is NOT “about” anatomy in general. You can google his name – don’t have to buy the book. I tried chiropracty, massage, epidurals, exercise, etc. P.S. I’ve had 2 discectomies in the past – didn’t know better, and….yeah, it’s a really worthwhile read.
