Nope. Not yet.

What in general makes it feel better? (sitting versus standing versus lying down; knees to chest stretch versus prone on elbows or press up?) Standing vs sitting. Lying versus standing; Knees to chest versus prone on elbows or press up makes no difference in comfort.

Yes and yes, Flexibility is great.

Thanks Julie.
