Last updated 2015-12-17

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Given the lack of evidence in support of pacing self-management for patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), it is examined whether physical behavior and health status of patients with CFS improve in response to a pacing self-management program. The effects of pacing will be compared with those observed when applying relaxation therapy to patients with CFS.
