Rear brake piston spring replacement

Hi, folks. Rebuilding the rear calipers on my 2004 S. Who has a clever way to reseat the internal spring in the rear brake caliper piston? Both my thumbs are sore from trying to push and reseat the spring and I don't seem to have a tool(s) that will work either. There must be a better way, right? Help!!!
