    First time I’ve ever commented on a UA-cam video.
    My back has had low level pain for half a decade. Constant. I always tried to crack it with a foam roller, but forgot how to use it.
    I did the door frame method. Instant relief. Instant.
    My back feels better than it has in literally five years. I’m astounded.
    I can already feel it tensing again, that’s how tight my back is... but I’m excited to try this again.
    Thank you.

So I am on here a lot and came up with a back issue bothering me real bad today and thought well, why not, I’ll see if you can do it yourself. This was The first video I watched and Happy to say the last one I’m not gonna sit need to see another and now I’m feeling much better but wanted to reach out and say a shout out for replying you don’t see it very often and I should know.

    THIS is the back pain video I've needed. Between my old job sorting bottles all day (VERY repetitive motion, plus I'm too tall for the sorting table so I had to hunch over), the fact that clothes my size never have big enough shoulders, and that backpacks (especially heavy ones) compress my shoulders together, this last half of a year has been killing this exact spot.

Fighting through workouts, losing sleep due to uncomfortability, bad, bad, pain trying to sit or stand and play the blues on my guitar. The foam roller trick was all I needed.

    I use a foam roller for my upper back but instead of doing a quick jerk, I tend to flex my neck up & down & also play with my center of balance, rocking my hips & so the amount of pressure from the foam roller on my back alternates. Controlling your breathing helps a bunch too! I find when I concentrate on continuously taking slow, steady, deep breaths, I get better pops & cracks then if I’m holding my breath

    I have always used the method 1 to open my thoracic up. Similar to method 2, I used a small household pillow in stead of the roller. Effect is not as good but it works as well. Idea is to lean back up and give the shoulder blades space to move way behind their normal position while building tension up between them. Works for me satisfactorily. Nice to have a validation here!!!

    To get my upper back and neck (almost) I lay down on a hard surface, place my hands behind me, ontop of eachother at the base of the skull. And then exhale as I pull my neck forward and raise upwards. I get like several *clonk clonk clonk* noise as I recoil up. Sometimes I'll do it once more to be sure.
    For other ways to do my back I'll lay down and make a small fist and place it under my back, I just put pressure on and get nice crack. And I'll do this going up or down to get all the areas.
    Also while sitting down I can put my arms back and push my shoulder blades together and i get a crack there too
