I wanted a second opinion. So I consulted with a physiotherapist. The first thing she said was: "Surgery is the very, very last option. If all else fails, you may have to consider surgery. Before you get to that point, you can do a whole lot to relieve, and possibly take away your lower back pain."
A number of sessions with the physiotherapist followed, which included massages, acupuncture and an exercise program to flex and loosen up my lower back. She also taught me exercises to do daily at home (which I did, but not every day). And it helped. In the physiotherapist's words: "You respond very well to the treatment."
