Long sitting in front of the computer and bad posture cause back pains. just like now, I feel that I need a good massage in order to ease the back pains that I am currently having...any suggestion as to how to lessen the or cure back pains?

Hi bokal2703, I myself also suffer from a back pain a few month ago, so I decided to consult a chiropractor. Doctor said pain is caused by a practice of incorrect sitting position, he advised me to practice to sit properly and avoid bending my back too often.

I don't get back pain so much after long hours in front of the computer but I do get chronic neck pain. I've been doing yoga which has helped loosen my muscles up a bit. That might help for back ache too. You need to check your posture. I think you can get cushions designed to help you sit better which will help take the strain off your back.

I agree with the chiropractor idea. I've been going to them for about 7 yrs. and are totally worth it.
