About
The study aims to validate the effect of relaxation training and stimulus control on reducing hyperarousal states and improving maladaptive sleep behaviors.
Full description
Relaxation training typically includes techniques such as breathing exercises, muscle relaxation, and mindfulness meditation to help patients reduce levels of physical and psychological tension, promote relaxation, and create favorable conditions for sleep onset. Stimulus control aims to break the negative association between the bed and insomnia, and rebuild a positive association between the bed and sleep.
