> also re: Yoga ... there's lots of Yoga practices that combine strength with flexibility... Yoga tends to pop up as something that has been proven to be beneficial for back pain while pretty much everything else is as good as placebo (including surgical intervention).

Pilates is strength-focused yoga. It saved me from needing back surgery. Please if anyone out there is suffering from chronic back pain please look into Pilates.
