Common cures for lower back pain

Excerpt: 
In the gym, it is not uncommon to hear the wails and grunting of lifters hunched over machines and free weights jerking out reps-- attempting to exercise away their nagging back, neck and shoulder pain. Exercise can be the perfect cure for pain. But even stretching, followed by ab crunches usually lead to the massage table. And while the traditional workout routine may fill the pockets of your masseur, it is unlikely to bring you lasting relief. Lower back pain is the second most common cause of missed work days in the United States, yet 85% of cases remain unexplained.
