ARRRGGG!!!! my F***ing back, lol

anyone have any good tips for keeping the bad back at bay? crouched over in the chair for hours on end tattooing really kills my back. the next 30+ years are gonna ge rough if this gets any worse!...ha ha... suggestions??

www.nadachair.com I tried this at an eco-green convention last week,and it really helped to straighten the back out,and releive tension when your sitting,or hunched over tattooing all day.. Also maybe get a latex bed that alleviates pressure points on your body..

i speak from experiance unfortunately, having had surgery to correct but there are a few things you can do to help. some people i know use this type of a chair, not this specifically but same basic concept. http://wwwDOTkneelsitDOTcom/designpicsDOThtml you can lay on the floor flat, and elevate your legs with a milk crate and a pillow, allowing your lower leg to rest on that and this flattens out your lower back for some relief, you can even go further to roll up a towel and slide it under your lower butt to create a slight curve to make your back unroll even more. hope this helps, lower back pain is torture.

You also should start working out regulary. A good thing to strenghten your lower back is doing stomach vacuum's. It has helped me. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ms-fit5.htm
