Reply to comment by XLR8yourDay in LPT Request: Anyone have any advice for dealing with lower back pain? by apeprom123

Exercise and musculation are more important than stretching. It has been proven time after time that the best is to build up your core. Avoiding prolonged static postures also helps to not lock up various muscles and articulations. So many ways to find relief, like alternating cold and medium-heat and relaxation. Lowering your overall stress levels also contributes to your greater well being in cases where people are dealing with chronic pain.

Lower back pain is really vague. So , whatever exercise a kinesiologist or physical therapist advises for you particular situation. Mainly, core exercises, activating the pelvic floor, walking, swimming and activities like practicing Chi-gong, Taichi, pilates and Yoga are known to provide good support. But there are many good options out there.

mb with the term musculation, it's french for bodybuilding... so calisthenics or weights. Basically progressively including load bearing exercises to increase muscle strength in a controlled environment, which allows you to endure static postures longer without your muscles overreacting.
