Using Mind-Body Techniques to Reduce Anxiety

The Integrative Medicine and Health Research Program at Mayo Clinic studies the effectiveness and feasibility of using mind-body techniques to reduce anxiety before and during medical procedures, improve quality of life for patients and caregivers, and help people manage stress.

Mind-body techniques focus on strengthening a harmonious connection between a patient’s mind and body to maintain or improve health. Techniques include Hypnosis, mindfulness, deep breathing, stress management and resiliency training, and music therapy.
