My sensei recommended Alexander technique. He had back problems from Tae-Kwon Do and such and he says it helped him a lot. I don't have any back problems, but my wife does so I suggested she go see his instructor for Alexander Technique. My wife came back from the first session excstatic. Although she couldn't clearly define exactly why she liked it so much, because the lady she went to see didn't really "do that much" to her, it was more of an energy/spiritual thing coupled with physical aspects like proper body alignment etc. She will be going back to her in the new year as well. I haven't been myself but from those two sources I hear it's awesome.
You have to do the exercises they tell you to do however, or it's not very much use like anything else.
