From nurses to firefighters,
from children to older folks - and all of us in between - work-related
stress is stressful. It affects our sense of
pain and often triggers sessions of back
pain and neck pain and back-related and neck-related pain. Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation is here
to help squash the power of work-related stress whenever possible. Carrolltown back pain and neck pain
patients bring everything – including their stress – with them to
Gormish Chiropractic & Rehabilitation. You can, too! Together, we’ll 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 immune
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 problems get to them. Adolescents get low back pain, too. Depression, anxiety, coercion, uneasy
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 work-related stress. 40% described
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
found that psychological factors and fear-avoidance behaviors
contributed to 11.8% of nursing care facility workers’ reporting
that chronic low back pain disrupted 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 Carrolltown
chiropractor is by your side.
