Hey Chinchillin,

Managing your symptoms through soft tissue work is a great start, but you also need to become aware of what movement habits (or lack thereof) are resulting in your messy back in the first place. 
You sound like a strong and active individual. How much do you know and understand about good movement quality, posture, and stuff like that? Have you taken any steps towards resolving any movement issues you think might be part of the problem?
