Cure for a bad back.....

[Hippona]

So all summer my back has been killing me.....I have had the flexibility of an ironing board despite shed loads of anti-inflammatories and strong painkillers ....I was seen with a hot water bottle in July FFS! I also took up pilates which has helped a bit with my back but more impressively has given me a flat abdo. and helped with my riding.....

.....BUT.....the horses are back in at night now after several months of living out and after 3 days of mucking out......guess what.....no bad back!!! I am cured!!!

I am thinking of offering the 'mucking out therapy' to some of my patients as an alternative option, do you think there would be a high take-up??

but then there would be less for you to do............ so yours would be bad again.

Can't say it helps mine in the winter but I like pilates

 

[Hippona]

Yeah....the bonus is you can do pilates with telly on

Its probably just I'm more active.....that'll wear off shortly

Hmmmm.....when the mucking out therapy stops working try swinging from the chandeliers............

 

[dwi]

Do you want to come and do mine? My back is fine all summer and only plays up when I start to muck out again in the winter.

worst thing for a bad hback is to rest it. look at the NICE recommaendatiions, chiro, oesteopathy acupuncture and work
