    Hey folks,
    I've recently had an MRI done and they found the above.
    When I sit for a long period of time, I stand only to find that I am "leaning" over to one side.
    My physio has given me general exercises to do. However, my flexibility in general is rubbish and I think I can only benefit from getting better at stretching.
    Do ye have a go to routine to improve flexibility that you would recommend?

    I'd definitely recommend Pilates or yoga.

    yoga all the way, used to have occasional back problems, and a good half hour session would do wonders for me. I'd highly reccommend DDP yoga if you want something that you can follow along to a video at home. hes a former pro wrestler, so theres not a lot of the spritual mumbo jumbo involved that you can find in other clips.

    edit - the caveat to this, is that my underlying cause was that I was simply overweight by about 4 stone, since I've sorted that out, no more back problems.
