Last Sunday I tripped over a piece of furniture. I was able to save myself from falling, but my back muscles tightened up and its been bothering me for a week now. I've been taking care of the birds okay, but it's been hard to keep up with house cleaning/tidying. I hope it gets better soon.

Your back? Ouch! Is it your lower back or your upper back? I might have a way to temporarily get rid of the pain.

Edit: Congrats on the new budgie rank!!!! :D

Edit again: never mind that question. I'm sending you a pm. :)

Do you go to a chiropractor? I have to because of my scoliosis and because of my neck.

I used to go to a chiropractor myself. It helped me.

I had a good chiropractor where I used to live. I haven't found a good one around here.

Dianne, so sorry to hear about your back! Take it easy but keep stretching and stuff too and blah blah you probably know all the things you're supposed to do.

When I have regular back pain, I love to do the sun salutation move from yoga. I can feel it straighten out and streeeeetch all the muscles along my spine but in a healthy, can't overdo it kind of way.

Yoga works better than a chiropractor IMO. Done regularly it helps enormously with flexibility and posture. Just respect your limits and don't try to push beyond them. Because no matter where your limits are, yoga can find them lol.

I love the Sun Salutation! I find it such a positive physical and emotional way to start your day :)
It's just a name but a very good one
