The easier of the exercises makes me feel a little silly because it is almost entirely effort free. But it really helps my back to relax and the therapist says it removes the strain from your back while improving the blood flow along the spine. Next time you're over; I can show you the handout, if you would like to see it.

I've seriously thrown my back out a couple of times. I found that -- once I recovered the second time -- it's noticably a Good Thing to strengthen my back and abs to prevent this kind of problem. I found http://www.back.com/articles-exercises.html is pretty informative, though I've since talked with a physical therapist about exercises. Good luck to you. I'll postpone your invite to help with our new cast iron pot-belly stove until summer. :) My family has a history of back problems. I've seriously thrown my back out a couple of times.
