Western Medicine: It sure sounds like you are one of those individuals where the common practices of treatment for back pain in western medicine is not the right approach. I would advise strongly that you get to yoga. Any yoga class I have been in is full of people just like you who found that this was the only way they found relief. I also very strongly recommend acupuncture in this situation.

Back pain: The back pain can be caused by muscle strain, spinal stenosis, ruptured disc, nerve impingement ... The treatment depends on the cause of the pain. If your pain persists, you should seek help from a health care provider. You might benefit from a comprehensive evaluation and treatment.
