Not worth it honestly. Go to a chiro and get adjusted. Find out the cause of your pain (spinal alignment, anterior/posterior tilt, ect.) and do something about it.
Many times back problems can be traced back to flexibility issues in the hip.

I have a weird hip/ low back pain, not sciatic, its weird because it will hurt like crazy but when I foam roll it won't, or sometimes the pain feels like a bruise right above the hip.
I've done some of the excersies in the "becoming a supple leopard" book and they helped. But like i said it's weird, it will hurt like crazy and then I'll wake up the next day and it's gone.
I actually think it is something in the hip, a few years ago it popped funny, and felt like bones grinding.
And I have done Chiro, really like it for the neck and upper back.

I agree with both suggestions. Love my chiro for acute issues. But youtube up Kelly Starrett for ongoing flexibility/mobility maintenance work.
