Abstract	This paper provides a review of scientific literature about relaxation training and its effects on anxiety. Research investigating progressive relaxation, meditation, applied relaxation and autogenic training were considered. All these methods proved to be effective in reducing anxiety in all kind of samples, affected or not by physical or psychological disorders. This review supports the efficacy of relaxation training as a valid stand-alone or combined treatment for anxiety disorders or problems and suggests a wider use of these techniques in the clinical practice.
