Same problem here. Have a great chiropractor and massage therapist. Sew no more than 20 min. at a time. Sewing/embroidery machines are about 5 inches higher than set in machines. I am short and need shorter sewing table. Higher one nearly killed me. Rubbing on theragesic or Biofreeze will give temp. relief. Ibuprofen helps me, but I hate pills. Wishing you well.
