[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1194466, member: 20599"] Find a good massage therapist licensed and experienced in sports massage. I threw my back out years ago while doing leg presses and was in excruciating pain. Orthopedic dr. put me through physical therapy, meds, ultrasound, etc. Nothing helped for long. It would get better for a day or two then go out again. Finally, desperate because I had a backpacking trip coming up, I went to a serious sports massage therapist. She worked on stretching hips, legs, etc, barely touching my spinal area itself. It was NOT relaxing--in fact, I was in borderline tears a few times (ok, maybe even actual tears). BUT, when I got up to leave, the pain was 80% gone. I would never go to a chiropractor. Had one almost break my neck once. It still gets stiff. (Did I mention said chiropractor was a family member). Look for a massage therapist associated with a good quality gym, or physical therapy center, if you can, not a freestanding massage place. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
