Doctor Hanscom believes that anxiety is at the root of chronic pain. “If you think about this carefully, your entire body is revolved around avoiding anxiety.” Anxiety affects every organ in the body, affecting your pain levels, and thus your emotions. It starts a cycle of anxiety-pain, anxiety-pain, etc. The brain gets more ingrained with the anxiety and adrenaline cycle over time.
