RESULTS
HEART
RATE
The Progressive
Relaxation group had a 100% improvement in heart rate over the control
group during the third viewing. The
Sedona group showed a 360% improvement over the control group.
BLOOD
PRESSURE
The diastolic
component of blood pressure is the second of the two blood pressure
readings and is considered to be the more significant measurement. A
comparison between the final diastolic measurement (after the third
viewing) and the first showed that the Control group had a 2%
increase.
The Progressive
Relaxation group had a 3% reduction in diastolic blood pressure while
The Sedona group
had a 10% reduction.
MUSCLE
TENSION
Muscle tension
during the third viewing of the stressful film showed that the Control
group's muscle tension was reduced by 14% whereas the Progressive
Relaxation group showed a 28% reduction and The
Sedona group showed a 26% reduction in muscle tension.
Even though
Sedona Method® is not aimed at muscle tension (it is a mental
technique) it had almost as great a reduction in muscle tension (only
2 percentage points difference) as the Progressive Relaxation group.
CONCLUSION
The scientific
results support the experience of the many graduates who report that
they are calmer in difficult situations after having learned the
Sedona Method™.
OK.
So, sure it works. But...
Do Course Results Last?
Presenting a summary of two surveys
of Sedona Method™ graduates.
WHAT
TYPE OF SURVEY
Two surveys were
conducted with the same population:
A telephone survey focused on rating the Sedona Method and its
benefits. And an anonymous written survey focused on the benefits of
the Course.
WHO
WAS SURVEYED
A random sample
of graduates who took the training were surveyed over a 17 month
period. 117 graduates participated in the study.
All who
particpated were surveyed by phone and then received a written
follow-up survey. The respondants to the written survey did so
anonymously. And during the telephone survey, all were told that their
individual responses would be kept confidential. It
had been more than 9 months on average since the graduates surveyed
had taken the course.
The
RESULTS
Of those
participating in the written study, 91% rated the course Valuable,
Very Valuable or Extremely Valuable. Of those participating in the
telephone study, 92% rated the course Valuable, Very Valuable or
Extremely Valuable. Not one person gave it a negative rating in either
study. And of all the rating categories, the most cited rating was
Extremely Valuable -- in both studies and by an overwhelming majority.
