Results: Twenty-eight studies met inclusion criteria. Twenty-three of these were randomised controlled trials, with 1246 total participants. This review reports on this data, with non-randomised study data reported in supplemental material. Post -intervention relaxation was associated with medium to large effect-size improvement for depression, anxiety, stress and fatigue. The effects of relaxation were superior to wait-list or no treatment control conditions; however, comparisons with established psychological or physical therapies were mixed. Individual studies reported sustained effects (≤ 6 months) with relaxation for stress, pain and quality of life. Most studies were rated as having a high/serious risk of bias. Conclusion: There is emerging evidence that relaxation therapies can improve outcomes for persons with multiple sclerosis. Given the high risk of bias found for included studies, stronger conclusions cannot be drawn.]]> Thu 05 Oct 2023 14:01:30 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17931 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:56:36 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41602 Mon 08 Aug 2022 09:21:19 AEST ]]>
