Hi, I have severe lower back pain because of collapse of my lower spine, scoliosis and osteopenia, L4 & 5
discs for 2 years after lifting a very heavy table. I went off all pain medications, started Pilates at age 79. I
believe the Pilates and the lifting of weights has helped me strengthen my abdominal and back muscles.
I have returned playing back to tennis which was my goal. Try new avenues, one may work. Never give up.

Really appreciate your motivating message. Pilates and strength training are so helpful to keep going. I suffer from constant headache pain. Trying to stay off medications with terrible side effects.
Thanks so much for your positive approach.
