Back pains, of second kind

Hi all,

last autumn there was a discussion here concerning back pains and kayaking. It was centered on the case where a disc has been damaged.

But one can also get back pains without any such damage ie. only the muscles supporting ones posture get stiff and cramped, and a vicious circle starts. No relaxation, cramps lead to more cramps, etc. Two questions for all who have been there or who have seen it:

1) how can one avoid this ie. the preventive action needed?

2) if in the vicious circle, how does one get out?
