1. Back pain is caused by pinched muscles so to get rid of the back pain she has to free up the muscles in her back and here's how to do that:
Back:
(do from a sitting position)
Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder, fingers over the back and the palm in the front and firmly press on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side.
For best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.
2. Balm or gel is not the permanent solution back ache. Have you concert any Orthopedics/physiotherapist?
1.Your mom needs to do some light back strengthening exercise but only after concerting physiotherapist.
2. Ask her to do some yoga for back ache but again I will suggest to discuss with some Yoga Expert.

3. Read the following article for more details on cause of back pain :

4. Still if you mom wants to carry some Gel or balm, then use Volini (Ranbaxy) & ARTHRIN GEL( Elan).
5. Try some Panchkarma for back ache
3. If your mom is new to low back pain perhaps the most important thing to do after a day’s rest is to start doing gentle stretching and exercise.
This will strengthen the abdominal region and lower back to get rid of back pain.
She must also improve her posture when she is sitting, standing and sleeping.
Also tell her to use Volini Gel on the affected areas at least twice a day for instant relief from the back pain. While going off to work she can always carry along Volini Spray. It’s non-messy & provides instant pain relief.
And the best part is she can carry and use it anywhere she goes....

5. Pls avoid using pin killers often and that itself will give u more problems in future including renal coplications.Instead find out why she is getting back spasm. It may b due to oesteo phorosis conditions. Is she in d menopausal stage? There r excellent remedies for treating and curing this problem. 'Nutrition' is a good, essential and efficient means for solving this. Infact most of d complications in d body arise due to lack of nutrition, lack of excercise, stress, lack of positive mind and proper rest. I can help, if need be. I'm a nutritionist from chennai and available in 9384066866.
