Tylenol...for aches and pains...my osteopath told me to buy a swimming foam noodle...I lie on the floor and put the noodle across my back...I also use the tennis balls...as someon here mentioned...you can also roll up a towel,,,but for me, the harder the better..I also have a foam back piece, in the shape of an "S" almost and again when you lie down on it, it arches your back and it feels good..I use a heat pad..helps me...and someone mentioned checking the iron, etc..all that is true...I went through a long period with unbearable pain between my shoulders...better now...but I have been going for regular massages, etc..
