Abstract

Restricted Environmental Stimulation Therapy (REST) has been useful in treating a variety of health-related problems, including obesity and cigarette smoking. The pilot project described in this paper used 24 hr of REST (darkness and silence) with four patients suffering from essential hypertension. Long-term changes have included lower blood pressure, a reduced need for medication, and improved coping with stressful life events.
