Home >> Back Pain
I sit in front of a computer for 8-10 hours a day, and a few years ago I was starting to suffer severe lower back pain.
I started taking a tai chi class, and within a few weeks all the pain went away.
Probably any kind of exercise/stretching would help. But unlike most exercises, there's nothing strenuous about tai chi, and you don't have to get into all kinds of weird positions as you do in yoga. It's just deep breathing, synchronized with a series of slow, easy movements.
Now I practice it for about 10 minutes every morning. I'm positive it prevents a lot of other health problems, but I can't prove it. All I know is my back feels great, I have more energy than I used to, and I haven't been sick for more than 3 years.
Birch and pine have been found to relax muscles and reduce inflamation. Using the two together can cure most muscle aches, I have found that soaking in warm to hot water with a couple of drops of each works better then any drug I have tried.
