Exercise for stress management. Program design and troubleshooting
Abstract:
Exercise is undoubtedly an important facet of stress reduction, and patients should be encouraged in every way possible to use exercise as part of stress-management programs. However, exercise may itself create a set of disorders, usually overuse, inflammatory syndromes. Physicians should have a firm understanding of the methods available for treating such problems and returning the patient to his or her exercise program. While it is not reasonable for a patient to cling to an "exercise-at-all-costs" attitude, neither is it reasonable for a physician to treat all exercise-related problems by the simple advice to stop exercising.
