Sensory overload is nothing to disregard. Stress isn’t just a leading cause of death in the United States, but also for pain. There are many stressors we encounter each day, and when they compile, problems arise.

SENSORY OVERLOAD

While everyone’s cases are different, a common thread is that this impacts mood, mental health, relationships, and school/work performance. You experience physical, chemical, and emotional stress daily, so it’s vital to know when you’re overloaded and when everything is fine. Chiropractors equipped with BrainCore technology can help.

CHEMICAL STRESS

This occurs when tissue is damaged or inflamed from trauma or overuse. The resulting stress to localized areas triggers the release of chemicals such as serotonin, histamine, substance P, and bradykinin. The side effect of these lingering in your system is the continued perception of pain.

EMOTIONAL STRESS

Anger, fear, and anxious thoughts are common feelings that we experience can be overbearing at times. Depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders can make your everyday doings impossible or incredibly challenging, not to mention unenjoyable.

PHYSICAL STRESS

We associate this form of stress with pain. Whether chronic or caused by acute injury, hyperextending a muscle, fracturing bones, or blunt trauma, this stresses your nervous system out. Other forms of pain are chronic, caused by underlying conditions or bad habits. Conditions that cause chronic stress are cancer, arthritis, and carpal tunnel. Alternatively, habits such as the overuse of mobile devices or slouching can lead to chronic physical stress.
