Back pain is most probably due to back muscle weakness. If MRI is normal that means there is no nerve compression . I would suggest you to start her on calcium and vitamin B 12 therapy. She should also take muscle relaxant, and apply diclofenec ointment. Also warm water on back during shower will also help.
