Suggest Treatment For Lower Back Pain

I'm currently having extreme lower back pain. I've had this pain for the past 3 months and I can't bring myself to sit in the doctor's office. I am a dance teacher and I have had extreme limitations in my normal classes. Sometimes I have to stay seated the entire class because I can't stand up. The pain keeps me up at night and I'm having trouble getting around. Help?
