Since I started dancing (gotten worse since I've been on Accutane, but I only have five days left of the treatment), my body has almost always been sore and achy. My joints all pop, my muscles are always tired, and I tend to always have a low-grade sciatic pain in my butt and down either leg, depending on the month. I had a wake up call two days ago on vacation. I hadn't been wearing my 6 inch stilettos in a week, but I'd just gone on a long walk to lunch. After lunch, I tried to get up and walk away, and my right leg was stuck in it's socket somehow. I was physically unable to move my leg forward without a firey, burning, excruciating pain. I immediately teared up and dragged myself back to my seat. A few stretches and twists and moments to compose myself did the trick, but I was left with a very, very sore joint the rest of the day. I decided then and there to do something about it. My body is my temple and I want to preserve it. All my favorite things in life require me to be healthy and mobile. My ideas include: going to a chiropractor, taking glucosamine/chondroitin and fish oil in addition to the gram of MSM, biotin and multi-V I already take, only working two nights a week, yoga, learning some good stretches...
Does anyone have any more suggestions of things to do? Anyone know any good stretches to prepare one's body for six inch stilettos and the strain of lap dances? Any good stretches for after work or anytime? Are there some important supplements that I'm forgetting? Favorite yoga poses? Let's stay healthy!

It has helped my back a ton. Just get a method down for being gentle when getting on and off your knees.
