:-)) I too know that back warning device.

good picking, i was in a different
patch which had larger berries, makes things
go much faster.

even when standing at the sink or counter
working on something i'll often still shift
my weight back and forth to keep moving as
otherwise my lower back can lock up a bit.

I've recommended these to a couple of USians I've met online and they've
said they worked well to relieve pain and enable comfortable movements
again. My husband and I both use these exercises when we need to do so
and found them helpful.

thanks, i'm familiar with both of those in
various forms. i don't tend to exercise in
the summer as much as i need to stretch once
in a while to offset tired muscles from
gardening.

yes, when i had a middle back trouble many
years ago similar back exercises helped a
great deal to relieve the problem. after
months of trouble and pain, once i started
exercises it moderated the pain enough that
i could start sleeping again within just a
few weeks.
