Several ways: You must be proactive in terms of lifestyle changes including: weight control, regular exercising & not smoking. Make sure to have adequate sleep & good vitamin d/calcium intake. Stretching, core strenghtening and cardiovascular exercise are all important components of any regimen. Walking and biking, can be good cardiovascular components.

Exercise: Routine low impact aerobic exercise can reduce your overall pain (i.e. Walking cycling swimming) i would check with your primary doctor as well. Physical therapy may prescribed. Exercise bikes can be a good way to exercise to help your back but the best thing would be to find one that works best for you. A recumbent bike can often be helpful if you are comfortable in a sitting position.
