Today I talk about primary and secondary stressors and stress that cause, amplify, and sustain chronic somatic symptoms in the body. The type of symptoms we are looking at are considered stress symptoms or what's called nociplastic or neuroplastic symptoms. They are not nociceptive or neuropathic type symptoms that are caused by issues in the body tissues. Nociplastic or neuroplastic symptoms are caused by stress signals from the brain. I call this BS- brain signals of stress or brain sensations in the body. I go over these 2 types of stress and how we want to work on reducing both secondary and primary stress as this will reduce the production of stress symptoms in the body.
