What can I do about my aching back?

Back Care

How would you rate your posture on a routine basis? Has it changed for the worse due to compounding daily stresses? Try standing and sitting tall whenever you think about it. Straighter. Higher. That's great! Now take a deep breathe and hold it...hold it...blow it all out slowly through your pursed lips. Try to walk tall and really suck in your abdominal muscles every time you walk through a doorway. Exercising your "abs" will in turn help support your back.
