My back issues seem to be stress-related. Also, I have one leg slightly shorter than the other one, which throws everything out of kilter. And I'm hyper mobile on top of that.

See what your chiropractor thinks about it. There are plenty of gyms in Chicago - and I am more than willing to give you free training at the gym I used to work at. It is excellent at resolving back issues. You can read more about it at www.powerplate.com<br /><br />(and it would be so much fun to meet you...we can always wear masks of course to retain an element of anonaminity ;-))Nicolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017352687163694581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-84167318704308191412009-04-26T02:02:00.000+01:002009-04-26T02:02:00.000+01:00Ask your chiro what he thinks of the MBT anti-shoe...Ask your chiro what he thinks of the MBT anti-shoe (google it).
