"Stress is one of the most underrated causes of back pain!"
When the stress persists for too long. For example as a result of a conflict at work, relationship problems, worrying about how something will end or worrying about whether we can handle everything. This prolonged, also called 'unhealthy stress', ensures that the body cannot enter a 'recovery mode', which means that the body becomes increasingly tired and eventually exhausted. This decrease in the overall condition as a result of the long-term stress also reduces the condition of the back muscles. "The back muscles are constantly contracted". Although the tension in the back increases, the condition and function of the back muscles decreases. In particular, this has a negative effect on the 'stability and control of movement' of the spine. This 'unhealthy stress' therefore has a major impact on your back pain.
