Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Massage has been shown to promote relaxation and reduce anxiety, which may improve the client's ability to sleep. Acupuncture and acupressure may also be effective, but these interventions typically require the assistance of a trained practitioner. Distraction techniques may not directly address the client's anxiety and may not be as effective as relaxation techniques.
