description The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of supervised muscle relaxation training in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Sixty-eight participants were allocated at random either to a muscle relaxation training group or to a control group. Every participant was evaluated for health-related quality of life, muscle function, pain, and disease activity. The training group exercised 30 minutes, twice a week for 10 weeks, while no intervention was made in the control group. The results indicated improvements in the training group regarding self-care according to the Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales 2, and in recreation and pastimes according to the Sickness Impact Profile-RA (p

The results indicated improvements in the training group regarding self-care according to the Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales 2, and in recreation and pastimes according to the Sickness Impact Profile-RA (p&lt;0.05) directly after the intervention. Mobility and arm function (p&lt;0.01) according to the Arthritis Impact Measurement Scales 2, and muscle function of the lower limbs (p&lt;0.05) were improved after six months. No improvements remained after twelve months. It thus seems that 10 weeks' relaxation training might have some short-term influence in individuals with RA.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0300-9742</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1502-7732</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1080/03009749950155788</identifier><identifier>PMID: 10092165</identifier><identifier>CODEN: SJRHAT</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Colchester: Informa UK Ltd</publisher><subject>Adult ; Aged ; Arthritis, Rheumatoid - physiopathology ; Biological and medical sciences ; Diseases of the osteoarticular system.
