Back pain is a problem for many of us and can be extremely painful but there are many ways to cope and deal with it. Some you may have already tried and others maybe new to you but with trial and error some of these techniques can make a difference.

Both pilates and yoga are great for back pain, depending on your strain. If you know that you’re stiff, but actually quite strong, look at a yoga class. If you’re relatively supple but weak, think about pilates. Try to go to a class twice a week.

Having a good posture will help with sore back muscles. The simplest thing to remember is to stand tall and walk tall. Try to lengthen the spine as much as you can. This will automatically engage all the posture muscles in the right way.

If you work in an office and suffer from back pain, find out what options you have to tailor your workspace for you. Get up out of your chair every hour – do some walking on the spot or some kind of activity. If you’re hunching over your screen, try to reverse the action – pull your shoulder blades back and down and then push your chin up to the ceiling.
