Let me know how that works out.

Any tips on reducing over-exaggerated *lower* back curvature (which apparently is called lordosis)?

it is well known that PMS Elle is evil.
I think you'd fit in a 12" or at least a 16" firework mortar
You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

The exercise I was told to do (and which worked) was this:Lean your back against a wall with your feet out on the floor (preferably carpet so you don't slip) at an angle that's comfortable for you. Then pull your stomach in so that you can feel your lower back touching the wall. Then release. Do this exercise for as many times as you feel it's ok, don't hurt yourself!
Have at least twice suggested a posture correcting strap, or at least seeking a medical opinion about the use of one.
