Previous research suggests that self-defined insomniacs are distinguished from normals by high levels o f anxiety and physiological arousal, which might be mitigated by muscle relaxation. This study assessed the relative effects o f frontal EMG biofeedback, progressive relaxation, and a placebo set o f "'relaxation'" exercises on the sleep o f 18 onset insomniacs. Each subject was trained in on...
