“…Progressive muscle relaxation can also lower pulse rate and blood pressure, as well as decrease sweating and respiratory rate. Muscle relaxation done regularly will have an anti-anxiety drug effect, and progressive muscle relaxation done for 20-30 minutes once a week is very effective in reducing insomnia [10], [13]- [18].…”

Background: The elderly experience a decreased sleep phase as a result of poor sleep, meaning that they tend to be restless and easily awakened, which can interfere with sleep quality. It can result in physical tension, which affects the increase in blood pressure. Progressive muscle relaxation therapy can improve sleep quality and control tension and anxiety by training patients to consciously relax their body muscles. Purpose: To analyze the effect of progressive muscle relaxation education on the quality of sleep in elderly people with hypertension at the South Cilacap Community Health Center. Methods: This research was conducted on elderly people with hypertension at the South Cilacap Community Health Center using a quasi-experimental research design with a non-equivalent control group design. Simple random sampling was used with a total of 46 respondents. The data were analyzed using a T-test. Results: The results of the study found an increase in the average score on the sleep quality scale, and after progressive muscle relaxation education, the intervention group found a mean pre-test score of 15.57 and in the post-test section a mean score of 5.57. In the control group, the pre-test had a mean value of 14.52, and in the post-test section, the mean value was 12.70. and the results of further analysis of the independent t-test between the intervention group and the control group showed p = 0.000. Conclusion: There was an effect of progressive muscle relaxation therapy on the sleep quality of elderly people in the intervention group among elderly people with hypertension at the South Cilacap Community Health Center. There was a significant difference in the average PSQI score in the post-test measurements of both the intervention and control groups. Progressive muscle relaxation is an alternative therapy designed to reduce muscle tension, which can then relax muscles ranging from facial muscles to leg muscles

“…[27] Another literature review focused on the effect of PMR on sleep quality among chronic disease patients reported that PMR significantly improves the sleep quality among patients with chronic diseases. [28] A rapid review on home-based activities that have potential beneficial effects on mental health have reported that exercise, yoga, PMR, and listening to relaxing music have beneficial effects on mental health. [7] A scoping review on mental health interventions implemented on COVID-19 patients revealed that telemonitoring, virtual games and strategies focused on social support and muscle relaxation techniques were shown as effective interventions.…”

Background: Patients with COVID-19 will experience high levels of anxiety and depression and poor levels of sleep and quality of life (QoL) due to isolation treatment and uncertain outcomes. Progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) exercises show promising treatment effects on mental health and sleep problems and overall QoL in COVID-19 patients. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PMR exercises in patients with COVID-19. Methods: Both experimental and non-experimental studies related to PMR and COVID-19 were systematically searched in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, PEDro and HINARI databases for studies published from the occurrence of the pandemic to December 2022. Study selection, methodological quality assessment and data extraction were carried out by 2 independent authors. Efficacy outcomes were evaluated for sleep quality, anxiety, depression, and QoL. The safety outcomes were evaluated based on adverse events reported. Review manager (RevMan 5.4, Cochrane collaboration) was used for the data analysis. Results: Four studies with 227 subjects were included in this systematic review. The pooled results indicated that PMR interventions improved the sleep quality score standardized mean difference (SMD): −0.23; 95% confidence interval (CI): −0.54, 0.07; P = .13, level of anxiety SMD: −1.35; 95% CI −2.38, −0.32; P = .01 compared to the usual care. Depression level, disease severity and QoL were also improved following PMR interventions. Only 1 study reported worsening of 1 patient clinical status while all other studies did not report any adverse events during the interventions. Conclusions: PMR interventions can improve the sleep quality, anxiety, depression, disease severity and QoL in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 in a short-term period compared to the usual care. However, there was indecision about the safety and long-term effects of PMR.

“…[13][14][15] Today, PRE are used to treat a variety of conditions, including, cancer, chronic pain, post-surgical pain, chronic fatigue, stress and anxiety, and women health physiotherapy. [16][17][18][19] In a randomized controlled study of women with PMS, PRE were found to lead to statistically significant reductions in depression and anxiety levels. [20] Furthermore, the Benson relaxation technique has been shown to produce significant improvements in physical and mental symptoms, as well as oxidative stress markers, in women with PMS.…”

Background: Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a common condition in women of reproductive age. It is characterized by a range of behavioral, physical, and psychological symptoms. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of progressive relaxation and myofascial release technique (MRT) on premenstrual symptoms, blood flow rate, pain, sleep quality and quality of life, in women with PMS. Method: The study will conduct as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. Study registered at the ClinicalTrial.gov Protocol ID: NCT05836454. The volunteers will be randomized using allocation software to be divided into 3 groups: the progressive muscle relaxation group, the MRT group, and the control group. Assessments will be conducted by another physical therapist who is blinded to the groups. The assessments will include the Premenstrual Syndrome Severity Score, Blood Flow Measurements, Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Short Form-36 Health Survey. Discussion: Since both methods provide relaxation, improve symptoms and quality of life, they have not been compared to each other in the literature. This prompt to us to plan this study.
