Emotional Stress: Impact on the Shoulders
At the Marc Bony Chiropractic Center in Mataró, we understand how emotional stress can manifest physically in the shoulders. Learn to relieve this pain and improve your natural health.
“There are studies that have shown that chronic pain can not only come from a physical injury but also due to stress and emotional issues” – Dr. Susanne Babbel told Psychology Today: “Often, physical pain serves to warn the person that there is still emotional work to be done.”
Those who have stress and anxiety tense and contract their muscles, causing fatigue and cramps over time. Therefore, many people use the wrong medicine for their chronic pain.
According to Dr. Babbel’s theory, this is what your body is telling you about:
The Shoulders
Difficult decisions affect the shoulders, whether you have a problem weighing on your mind or several. Perhaps someone is pressuring you, or maybe you are indecisive by nature. Whatever the case, lighten your load from your shoulders by sharing your doubts with someone close. Even if they can’t give you advice, talking about your concerns out loud can relieve them and help find a solution.
De-stress to Heal
The next time pain comes, try to relax instead of taking medication. Heal the source of the pain by reducing anxiety and stress. Your physical body is sending you a message about your emotions. Don’t silence the messenger with a pill. Listen to your body because it wants the best for you.
