April is Stress Awareness Month, a national observance that highlights the impact of stress and the importance of managing it in healthy, sustainable ways.
At Lander Medical Clinic & Western Family Care, providers understand that stress affects more than just your mood. It can contribute to physical symptoms like headaches, high blood pressure, sleep issues, and digestive problems. Over time, unmanaged stress can increase your risk for chronic illnesses such as heart disease, anxiety, and depression.
