Simple relaxation methods may ease PMS without drugs

This study looks at whether combining two relaxation techniques—Benson relaxation and Jacobson progressive muscle relaxation—can reduce symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in women aged 18 to 30. Fifty-six female students will be split into three groups: one using Benson, one using Jacobson, and one using both techniques for two months. The goal is to see if these non-drug methods improve physical and emotional symptoms, quality of life, and daily functioning.
