Официальное название
A Feasibility Study Examining the Comparison of Transcendental Meditation Versus Health Education on Psychological and Hemodynamic Function in Post-menopausal Women
Обзор
The present study will examine whether women at high risk for developing hypertension, i.e., post-menopausal status, at least mild psychological distress, and mildly elevated blood pressure, show improvements in these risk factors after a 12-week Transcendental Meditation (TM) intervention compared to Women's Health Education (WHE). Positive findings will provide initial evidence of using nonpharmacological methods, such as TM, to prevent hypertension in postmenopausal women.
