If I have back pain and lay face down my cat will come knead and then lay right where I feel bad.

I know this is because it's inflamed and warmer than other spots in the house, but I believe it's because he loves me and wants me to get better.

Sciatica is the worst, I'm having a terrible flare up right now, and I'm on vacation.

Discuss weightlifting with your doctor. Fixed my lower back pain quickly and permanently.
