Backaches in pregnancy are normal, and result from increased weight and changes in the body's posture to cope with a changed centre-of-gravity, as well as a softening of the ligaments due to an increased level of progesterone. The only treatment is rest, heat packs and paracetamol (acetaminophen for our U.S. friends). Hope that helps! Aj :)
