What's a good way to relieve a bad back? My boyfriend has back problems and I'm always giving massages to help him, but is there anything else I can do to help or improve the massages?

I am a young 46 y/o single mother, of a 21 y/o daughter. I have been a Nurse since 1986. I have experience in just about every aspect of the medical field. And I know a little bit, about A LOT!!! I am from Ask.com. I tried Askaholics.com & I didn't care for it & now here I am on Blurtit.com, hopefully, I'll find this site more challenging & a lot friendlier!!!
