Stress is a part of life, but when it becomes overwhelming, it can take a toll on both your mind and body. April is Stress Awareness Month, a time to recognize how stress affects our health and explore ways to manage it. At Cypress PT and EVERGREEN Wellness, we believe that physical therapy and wellness go hand in hand in helping you feel your best—both physically and mentally.
The Link Between Stress and Physical Health
When stress builds up, it often manifests in physical ways, including:
✅ Muscle tension & pain (especially in the neck, shoulders, and back)
✅ Headaches & jaw pain (often linked to TMJ dysfunction)
✅ Poor posture & movement patterns
✅ Increased risk of injury due to stiffness and fatigue
✅ Slower recovery from injuries or illness
Chronic stress can contribute to long-term health issues, but physical therapy and wellness services can be key in managing its effects.
How Cypress PT & EVERGREEN Wellness Can Help You Manage Stress
At Cypress Physical Therapy, we take a holistic approach to stress relief through movement, targeted therapy, and recovery techniques. Some of the ways we can help include:
🔹 Manual Therapy & Myofascial Release – Hands-on techniques help reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote relaxation.
