You can raise the height of your cutting table (if it's the folding, banquet style) using pieces of PVC pipe cut to make it the correct height. You just slip the legs into the pieces of pipe. Saw this the other day and thought it was ingenious!
this is how I raised my table and it saved my back from hurting when cutting. don't have the should problem but will start following the tips about stretching to hopefully keep avoiding this problem
