Stretching is probably the #1 way to loosen up a lower back. Use some heat first to relax the muscles. Follow the stretching & an ab workout with ice.

Here's a good 'core' strengthening routine...

Working on your core is the best way to help  ...I had really bad sciatica around 12 years ago , I had some injections to help , but I've also been doing reformer Pilates since then ... makes a huge difference and I haven't had a really bad attack since .. 🤞

Heres a place in CM , they tailor the sessions to your fitness levels , they even offer a free trail ...

I had a Chiro and a Physio both say that pilates is one of the best non invasive treatments for lower back pain and lumbago.

Luckily, have never had back pain, but a buddy of mine has had it a long time. Tells me he had a hot tub installed at the house and 30 minutes at night time really helps.

I ended up having an op in Bangkok Hospital Korat about 8 years ago when the constant pain became unbearable, solved the problem for 6 years then it started coming back but not on the same pain scale as before, i just live with it now with the help of a support brace as shown in @forcebwithu post.

My hot baths on ocassionl do help very much, and are just so damn relaxing anyway. Conditioning has helped tremenously and things are improving, although there are days when it flares up and the naproxen helps.

I have'nt had a bath/jaccuzi in 40 years (always shower) unless i've had a lovely or two around for some fun lol

NB - Just piss taking mate, i understand why back pain sufferers have them but i've just never bothered.

With my previous long term house (25 years) I never took one.

When I moved into my next condo it had a huge whirlpool type bathtub. When I got into that thing it was like heaven. 

One of lifes simpilest and greatest pleasures for me.
