Have you done the lying on the floor with your head on a telephone director
thing (or something the thickness of a telephone directory!) It does seem
to help relax things quite a lot. This time of year seems to result in
'gardener's back' for so many people. ;-(

I have not yet tried lying on the floor - I can imagine it would help.
As it happens, it was not gardening that started the problem, but it
does seem to have aggravated it slightly. I have not been prone to
back problems to date, but this may be a warning to thosw who are!

It might be a good idea to see a chiropractor before it gets worse or 'set'.
People tend to put it off and then think the problem has gone away but quite
often it's just that the body has adjusted itself to a different position
which, over time, exacerbates the problem.
