THE POTENTIAL OF PSYCHORELAXATION THERAPY IN THE PATIENTS PRESENTING WITH CHRONIC SALPINGOOPHORITIS AND CHRONIC PELVIC PAIN SYNDROME
A modified MMPI questionnaire (SMOL), well-being/activity/ mood test, visual-analogue scale (VAS), and multidimensional personality questionnaire (MPQ) were employed to examine 60 women presenting with chronic salpingoophoritis and chronic pelvic pain syndrome. We compared dynamics of the clinical conditions of 30 patients undergoing psychotherapy in the form of respiratory relaxation training and 30 women given no such psychotherapy. It was shown that the respiratory relaxation training significantly decreased the intensity of painful sensation due to the improved psychological status of the patients that manifested itself as the reduced level of anxiety and tension in conjunction with the enhanced resistance to psychological stress. The psychotherapeutic modalities used in the present study were especially effective in the patients showing high level of anxiety and less efficacious in those characterized by hysterical fits, impulsiveness, and predisposition to fixing attention on their own feelings. It is concluded that the especially high efficacy of the treatment with the application of preformed physical factors can be expected in the patients having no psychopathological manifestations.
