Had a bad back for years now, tweaked it a few weeks back (no idea how) and was in agony. Had tablets from doc etc but went to see an osteopath as recommended by my old man.

I walked in there, stopped over as me back was hurting. He examined me and told me that my pelvis was crooked.

Anyway, after a quick massage he manipulates my back. You should have heard it crack. Then, I as good as leap of the couch. I felt like a new man, this osteopath man is indeed a miracle worker. Have been back a couple of times as he reckons it will take four visits to 'correct' my pelvis.

If anyone doubts an osteopath then stop doubting, get yourself to one.

He also reckons that keeping your back straight when lifting is one of the worst things you can do, he reckons your back is designed to be used by bending so that it how you should do it. Not too sure I agree with this logic, but hey, I feel great now.
