Try and inversion table. Hanging upside down let's the disks expand and rehydrate, only needs five to ten minutes a day. A lot of people sware by it, myself included. You could try semi-inverting in your harness, lying on a plank propped up against a tree at 45 degrees. I had back pain, felt like I needed to be pulled on the rack, and built a very shonky version of an inversion table - only inverted to 30 degree it so, but it actually worked. Wifey tried it and liked to too, so we bought a real one. My back is fine now so I don't use it much, she uses it every day and it keeps her back sorted. I'll post a video of my honemade version. You can also wank while inverted. Can't really drink though.

Not the prettiest dismount from that contraption was it...?

If it helps then its justified

I thought inversion was upside down like a bat hanging from a cave roof

Get a 3 ton digger with a decent grab.
For moving logs.
That would sort my back out.

Climbing?

True, but who's watching? The proper version let's you flip completely upside down, hanging by your ankles. It does take some getting used to. You can set the thing to whatever angle you want, they say 60 degrees is as good as upside down

Your spine is like a pile of Jenga blocks, all wibbly wobbly and held in place with muscle, cartilage, tendons and the like. You need to improve your core muscles and you will notice a big difference. Sit-ups, planks and the like will help you.

My back used to get really bad just standing at a bench all day, started doing sit-ups and  within a few weeks, it was sorted. I haven't had the sharp excruciating pain I used to get in many years and it just gets a little tight if I have really pushed it. Just keep those exercises going and overall physical fitness doesn't mean your core is strong!
