Emotional Stress and Back Pain: How Chiropractic Can Help You

Emotional stress not only affects your mind, it also directly impacts your spine. At Advanced Chiropractic Barcelona, we see daily how anxiety, work and worries translate into muscle tension, incorrect posture and constant pain.


The Mind-Spine Connection

  • The nervous system as a bridge: Emotional stress activates the “fight or flight” response, generating neck and back contractures.

  • Domino effect: Prolonged tension misaligns vertebrae, compresses nerves and limits your mobility.




The Neurophysiology of Stress: When Emotions Turn to Pain

The mechanism is clear and measurable. In situations of anxiety or prolonged pressure:

  1. Activation of the Sympathetic Nervous System:

    • Massive release of cortisol and adrenaline.

    • Involuntary contraction of cervical and lumbar muscles (“fight or flight” response).

  2. Structural alterations:

    • Misaligned vertebrae (subluxations) compress nerve roots, generating radiating pain.

  3. Systemic consequences:

    • Tension headaches.

    • Limitation of joint mobility.
