Chiropractic is a very effective treatment for back pain, but what many patients don’t realize is that they can stretch to make it even better.

Lie on a firm, flat surface for this exercise. You can place a mat or towel underneath you to make it a little more comfortable. If you aren’t able to flatten your back right away, fold a small towel and place it under the small of your back to provide a little support.
