An Australian health expert has suggested that lower back pain could be a result of negative thinking.
According to Western Australian Institute for Medical Research associate professor Markus Melloh, workers with a positive attitude were less likely to suffer from serious, persistent lower back pain than those who were unhappy in their role.
Speaking to Fairfax Media yesterday (April 23), the orthopaedic surgeon and rheumatologist stated that there is a direct correlation between positive attitude and the outcomes of back pain.
