Back pain leads to a higher risk of mental illness–chair massage may be the answer! It seems as though all of us have experienced back pain in life, whether just occasionally or chronic. Back pain has been a constant for me since I was 7 years old. While most people do not experience back pain quite that early in life, it is estimated that just about 80 percent of adults experience back pain at some point in their life. We often try to suppress the pain with over-the-counter medication. However, this medicine is just a temporary fix. It does not address the root causes of your back pain. Massage therapy can be a permanent and enjoyable solution to back pain!
Back pain can be a problem for a variety of reasons beyond the pain, whether it’s limiting your daily function, forcing you to take time off work, or otherwise impacting your life. But there’s another reason suggested by recent research that should vault “getting rid of back pain” to the top of your priority list:
Data analysis from this research revealed that compared to people without back pain, those with pain were more than twice as likely to suffer from one of five mental health conditions: anxiety, depression, psychosis, stress, and sleep deprivation. Subjects with chronic back pain were three times more likely to experience a depressive episode two and a half times more likely to experience psychosis compared to pain-free subjects.
Why take the risk when the solution is so simple?
