The other day, an old friend came to me with a complaint, “I’m working too many hours at the office and my back has been hurting terribly. I tried changing the chair in the office and even putting the computer up on a book so that I wouldn’t arch my neck but the problem persisted. I even started exercising and stretching a bit, but oddly enough there was no effect. I was really stumped, so I went to the doctor and he told me that the problem is most likely my bed.
