Intercostal muscles

Hi Cathe

Thank you for providing such an interesting and challenging variety of exercise DVDs - you and your team are truly inspirational!

My question concerns two painful episodes of intercostal muscle strain that I have experienced since my third child was born 18 months ago. The first time lasted about 6 weeks and as I was still breastfeeding I couldn't take any anti-inflammatory medication. I am still recovering from the second episode which has been about one week so far but this is much less painful than the first time. I was wondering if you know of any exercises to specifically target these muscles as I fear an ongoing problem. Any advice would be great.

Thanks,
Meg
