Circuit boards are made up of very sensitive components, and handling them in a careless manner is an almost surefire way of ensuring the board is damaged. Putting pressure on one of the small components can cause serious damage, while even a small amount of static electricity can completely destroy the board. The best way to prevent damage to a circuit board is by keeping the possible generation of static electricity to a minimum, discharging any static electricity that has built up and handling the circuit with care.
