Abstract
Welcome to Public Health Moment from the University of Minnesota. A new relaxation therapy to improve the healing of chronic foot ulcers in patients with diabetes was successful for 14 of 16 people involved in a recent clinical trial. The therapy was based on research conducted at the University of Wisconsin by Birgitta Rice, a public health researcher now at the University of Minnesota. <Clip: “Relaxation allows the blood vessels…and heel ulcers.”> The relaxation therapy is called “WarmFeet Intervention,” and Rice says patients can do it themselves at home. <Clip: “Not only is this a tool for enhancing…patients can now contribute to their own health.”> For more information, write to sphnews@umn.edu. With another Public Health Moment, I’m John Finnegan.
