Hi, I'm John R. Malan and I experienced lower back pain on and off over the past 15 years. However, a year ago it became chronic and I needed to make a plan. A specialist told me my condition is serious. Therefore I studied various systems that promised lower back pain relief however most of them were too complex to maintain. This prompted me to develop my own routine by adapting the broomstick exercise routine I developed years before to specifically target lower back pain. When I do my lower back relief broomstick exercise routine I experience almost instant relief. And as I continue to do them on a regular basis my lower back pain lessens as time goes by until it virtually disappears. The key is to do them regularly. My situation as I already mentioned is “serious” as a back specialist told me because a number of the cushions in my lower back that absorb shock are worn. If you don’t have a similar serious situation your improvement should be even more significant than mine if you follow this routine regularly.
