Those are the words my Mom would say to me whenever we would talk. And I would always say, “Good, Mom, keep it it up.”
My Mom was one of the strongest people I’ve ever met - strong in her faith, strong in her courage, and strong in her love for others. She was a humble person who, as C.S. Lewis said, didn’t think less of herself, she just thought of herself less. And, despite the many adversities and challenges of her life, that strength and humility came through in everything she said and everything she did - her life was truly her message.
Donna Marie Schexneider, my Mom, passed away this week but she left a legacy of hope and love that will last for eternity. I will miss her.
No need in doing those exercises I taught you anymore, Mom; your back pain is gone now!
Question:
I’m married and honestly,before the diagnosis that I got two slight herniated discs on my lumbar, my back gets sore every time I have sexual intercourse with my husband. Do you think the pain comes from the said diagnosis? If so, could you give me advice of what I should and shouldn’t do during sexual intercourse to avoid the pain or in order not to aggravate my back condition? My second question is, is it risky for me to get pregnant since I’m having this kind of problem?

Question:
If you looked at my MRI and xray, would you HONESTLY tell me if you think surgery is now my only alternative? Would you really give me a free phone consultation? I’m taking vicodin everyday, and want to quit, but pain is too much. I see a chiropractor 1 to 3 times weekly. Tried traction and inversion tables.

Question:
What are the best exercises to reduce lower back pain when you have a sway back?
Answer:
By far and away, this is positively the best exercise to reduce back pain if you have a sway back:
Most people try to treat sway back without ever addressing the psoas muscle. This is a huge mistake and will only lead to frustration because nothing is changing. Obviously, stretching the psoas isn’t the only thing that needs to be done, but it’s the first thing that needs to be done.

Question:
Hi, thanks for this website and the great work you are doing. I have spondylolisthesis, grade 1 for past 4 yrs. Intermittently have episodes of very severe acute lower back pain brought upon by any moderate activity like resistance exercises in the gym or basketball… . I wanted to know what specific stretching and abdominal/ back strengthening exercises you would recommend for a person like me? Also I have an exaggerated lumbar lordosis. I find relief whenever i bend forward and flex my spine to make a hump.
