Fernandina Beach Stress and Its Contribution to Back Pain

August 06, 2019

From firefighters to nurses, from kids to older folks - and all of us in between - work-related stress is stressful. It affects our experience of pain and often elicits sessions of back pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is ready to help squash the impact of work-related stress whenever possible. Fernandina Beach back pain and neck pain patients bring everything – including their stress – with them to Amelia Chiropractic Clinic. You can, too! Together, we will handle work-stress and back and neck pain.

WORK-RELATED STRESS

Work-related stress messes with us. It reveals itself through pain. None of us is resistant to stress, not even a kid! A kid’s job is being a kid and attending school on the way to adulthood. Along the way, kids experience job-related stress. The pressures of grades and friends and news and learning issues get to them. Adolescents get low back pain, too. Depression, anxiety, coercion, uncomfortable relationships, extreme academic pressures, and disappointing school lives may all put college students at risk for chronic low back pain. (1) 11% of firefighters reported moderate to extremely severe stress on the job. 40% reported musculoskeletal symptoms with back pain being the most noted. More stress is linked to more such symptoms. (2) Trash collectors reported back pain issues – upper back pain 89%, shoulder pain 81%, wrist/hand pain 79%, neck pain 68% - which translated into higher psychological demands for them. (3) Researchers discovered that psychological factors and fear-avoidance behaviors caused 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ reporting that chronic low back pain interfered with their work. (4) It’s an unusual person whose job is pure happiness and stress-free. The rest of us find ways to cope. Your Fernandina Beach chiropractor is by your side.

CHIROPRACTIC FOR THE STRESSED

(5) Chiropractic care is available to all, regardless of age or profession.
