Question
Hi
I am a 58 year old women who was just sitting at her computer and felt a burning pain in my spine on bra strap level,
I thought it maybe triggers but i have had it for three days and it is no better after applying trigger therapy,when i move my left leg say to hop on my bed,if i press down or lean down onto my left leg,the pressure sends pain into this area of my back,it hurts if i bend and i can feel the burning pain in that area constantly,if i stretch forward  it really hurts and stops me in my tracks,what can i do to alleviate the pain,i can only take panadol and they do not seem to help,i wonder why panadol do not work for me yet they work for ther people,,it feels like the pain is coming from the spinalis and the multifidi ,rotatores , 34 of the way up the spine in the longissimus,but i am not sure,if it is the deep spinal muscles
Any advice would be much appreciated

Hanna Somatic Educatio   Hi, Helen,

Drugs don't change muscular conditioning.  You've got a case of muscle/movement memory that keeps you tight and prone to cramping.

My direct recommendation is a somatic exercise to change your muscle/movement memory, "Spine Waves".

If you have back soreness or restricted movement elsewhere, get Free Yourself From Back Pain

If this is the only tension of which you are unaware, get The Five-Pointed Star (costs less)

For an understanding of your condition, please see this article on back pain.
