Abstract
Eight patients with Raynaud’s disease were treated with a behavioral program which included skin temperature biofeedback, relaxation training and protocol individualization based on the investigators’ psychological understanding of each patient. Three patients improved clinically, although only one learned self-control of skin temperature. Anxiety reduction, brought about by relaxation or changes in the program to suit individual needs, appeared to be an important aspect of the treatment program.
