Summary

This study tested whether progressive relaxation exercises can reduce menopause symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep problems, and improve work performance. 106 women aged 45-65 who had not menstruated for a year participated. Half did relaxation exercises while the other half did not. Researchers measured symptoms and work performance before and after the intervention.
