Abstract

The rationale and practice of applied relaxation (AR) are described in detail. The purpose of this treatment method is to teach the patient a coping skill which will enable him/her to relax rapidly in order to counteract and eventually abort anxiety reactions altogether. AR generally takes 10—12 sessions and consists of the following components: progressive relaxation, release-only relaxation, cue-controlled relaxation, differential relaxation, rapid relaxation, application training, and maintenance program.
