In order to assess the effectiveness of the thermal biofeedback training combined with the progressive muscle relaxation therapy in the treatment of patients with essential hypertension, blood pressure decline was measured on the treatment group who had the combined thermal biofeedback and progressive muscle relaxation training (N = 11), and on the control group who had only the progressive muscle relaxation training (N = 8). Baseline blood pressure was measured four times for two weeks on both groups. For the treatment group, blood pressure was measured twice before and after each of eight sessions of thermal biofeedback training for four weeks. For the control group, blood pressure was measured every two visits to a clinic for progressive muscle relaxation self-training twice before and after the self-training. A significant decline of the systolic blood pressure by 20.6 mmHg and of the diastolic blood pressure by 14.4 mmhg was observed in the treatment group. There was a tendency for both blood pressures to increase in the control group.
为评估热生物反馈训练联合渐进性肌肉松弛疗法治疗原发性高血压患者的效果，对接受热生物反馈与渐进性肌肉松弛联合训练的治疗组（N = 11）和仅接受渐进性肌肉松弛训练的对照组（N = 8）进行了血压下降情况的测量。两组均在两周内测量了4次基线血压。治疗组在为期四周的8次热生物反馈训练的每次训练前后各测量2次血压。对照组在每次前往诊所进行渐进性肌肉松弛自我训练时，在自我训练前后各测量2次血压。治疗组收缩压显著下降20.6 mmHg，舒张压显著下降14.4 mmHg。对照组的两种血压均有上升趋势。
