I too am an IT consultant, and sit all day most days. I also play guitar all the time, when sitting in front of the computer at home. I also have back and neck pain. Mine does not come from bulging discs or nerves, but from stress. As we are computer nerds, we are very obsessive about getting "the project" completed, we are not prone exercise much, and our entire bodies become tight as a result. I highly recommend you read, if you haven't, "Healing Back Pain" by John Sarno. The book explains reasons behind back pain, and why it might not be a structural only problem. Just after reading this book, most of my symptoms have gone away. When I do have flare ups, I am able to contain them and get on with my life, instead of being prohibited by pain. It is the best $10 I ever spent, and I think it may do you some good. Please rent it from the library or get it on amazon. It has really changed my life. HI – I enjoy your blog.
