The clicking is caused by vertebrae moving around. It also
reveals exactly how much muscular tension there is. Bones
have no physical means to move themselves; the only way a
bone moves is if a muscle moves it. Each of your vertebrae
has upwards of 36 muscles attached to it that act like guide
wires. If muscle tone on each side of a vertebrae ( or any
other bone/joint) is equal then the bone rests in normal position. However, if tension is increased unilaterally then the bone is
pulled out of normal position. That clicking and popping
you here when pressure is applied to your back is the
vertebrae being moved to normal position (hopefully!).
