Stress-related disorders are the third leading cause of healthcare spending in the United States，after heart disease and cancer.In 2012，the treatment of stress-related disorders，such as headaches，back pain and cost pain，cost Americans more than 80 billion. Over 90 percent of people suffering from stress or stress-related problems seek help through primary care and tend to be frequent healthcare users.These visits can consist of as much as 70 percent of physicians’ caseloads(工作量).
