From firefighters to nurses,
from kids to older folks - and all of us in between - work-related
stress is stressful. It affects our sense of
pain and often elicits bouts of back
pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Chiropractic Care is here
to help suppress the power of work-related stress whenever possible. West Palm Beach back pain and neck pain
patients carry everything – including their stress – with them to
Chiropractic Care. You can, too! Together, we will handle
work-stress and back and neck pain.
WORK-RELATED STRESS
Work-related stress messes with us. It gets our attention 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 path to adulthood. Along the way, kids experience
job-related stress. The pressures of grades and peers and news
and learning issues get to them. Adolescents get low back pain, too. Depression, anxiety, coercion, uneasy
relationships, extreme academic pressures, and unsatisfactory
school lives may all set college students up
for chronic low back pain. (1) 11% of firefighters reported moderate to
extremely severe work-related stress. 40% reported
musculoskeletal symptoms with back pain being the most noted.
More stress related to more such symptoms. (2)
Trash collectors said they had back pain issues – upper back
pain 89%, shoulder pain 81%, wrist/hand pain 79%, neck pain 68% - which stressed them out more. (3) Researchers
discovered that psychological factors and fear-avoidance behaviors
caused 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ stating
that chronic low back pain interfered with their work. (4) It
is a rare person whose job is pure happiness
and stress-free. The rest of us find ways to manage. Your West Palm Beach
chiropractor is by your side.
