The study, based at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital's (MGH) Institute for Technology Assessment and the Benson-Henry Institute (BHI), found that individuals in the relaxation-response programme used fewer health care services in the year after their participation than in the preceding year. "Our study's primary finding is that programmes that train patients to elicit the relaxation response - specifically those taught at the BHI - can also dramatically reduce health care utilisation," said James E Stahl of the MGH Institute for Technology Assessment, who led the study.
