I'd like to suggest for muscle spasms and cramps, a topical magnesium product may help. The magnesium is a relaxant and opposes contraction, and when muscles cannot relax it can be very helpful.
This new version which many of us on NT now use is easily available at WalMart for $5.98:

For the back area only a quarter's diameter rubbed in gently may show you some relief. This is really effective and I use it myself!
(don't slather it on like cosmetic moisturizers, since it contains magnesium some of which will be absorbed) Many Americans are low in magnesium because of poor diet. Topicals like this are very handy, less expensive than oral supplements, and this one is especially affordable.
