Supportive evidence:
Empricial evidence - BRANDY, college students with tension headaches, 7 x 50 min sessions, reduced headaches, can help alleviate the symptoms of stress.
Appropriate treatment - ATTANASIO, works well with children, treats it as a game, more optimistic about its results than adults, effective in all ages.
Weaknesses/Positives:
Skills for life, can be used anywhere once skills have been mastered, ensure the patient never relapses.
Time consuming and expensive, a lot of practise, patience and commitment from patient, may not be appropriate for short term stress.
