How does the sticky tape work then?

I had that once and it worked pretty well. Feels damn strange when you take the tape off.

it reminds me to pull my shoulders back a bit (ie like michael not the chimp)

I've been reading alot about lower back problems. Apparently, folks who spend most of their days at a desk (ie: me) tend to have pretty bad problems with their spines. Nerves get frazzled and can't get good information to the brain.

They suggest taking a yoga class and/or getting specialized massages to align the spine. Maybe someday if I'm lucky..

chiros can be quite affordable...mine's only $30 a session and I feel like I'm glowing with the pure and holy light of a thousand suns when I get done.

My ex is a massage therapist. Every once in awhile she'll give me a freebie in exchange for me cooking her a meal. What a shweet deal!

Oh, but yeah, yoga + massage = very good for spine & back muscles. It's thanks to this combination of things that I've no longer got scoliosis (chiropractic work was good at first, and then seemed like it made things worse after a couple visits).

i twist around in my chair and crack my own back a lot. that might be bad for me.
