New York City Fear of Back Pain Relieved with Rosenberg Wellness Center

September 05, 2017

Fear of the “damaged spine.” It’s a most common feeling to have about any number of things in life. Fear avoidance. It’s common in New York City back pain sufferers. When back pain enters the scene, fear avoidant behavior tends to creep in with it. Back pain specialists like your New York City chiropractic physician are aware of the effects of fear and fear avoidance on New York City back pain and neck pain patients. Fear keeps New York City back pain sufferers from doing the simplest things out of concern that they may hurt. The spine is pretty resilient, but when it is damaged its resiliency disappears in the mind of its owner. Rosenberg Wellness Center helps New York City back pain sufferers manage the fear of back pain with information, care, and movement.

The Sense of Fear

Fear itself makes sense. If you experience pain with something, you try to avoid that something like shuffling paper in a way that you get a paper cut or bending a certain way that produces leg pain. If you feel back pain when you move, you attempt not to move like that to avoid back pain. Avoiding back pain-provoking activity for a New York City back pain sufferer wanting to protect his or her damaged back makes good sense. Researchers explain though that if a back pain sufferer experiences pain in the early days of back pain and doesn’t make a huge deal out of it, he or she doesn’t get caught in trying to avoid movement, in the fear avoidance cycle. (1) Rosenberg Wellness Center empathizes with the New York City back pain patient who does not want to move too much because of fear that his or her back will hurt again or maybe even worse than before.
