Encrypted on your device

Every entry is locked with a key generated only on your phone, before it's ever sent anywhere.

The science

A century-old technique, not a trend

Progressive muscle relaxation was developed by physician Edmund Jacobson in the 1920s and remains one of the most widely studied relaxation methods in clinical practice. Read the full research background →

Tension you've stopped noticing

The body adapts to chronic muscle tension so quickly that it becomes invisible. PMR restores awareness: you can't release what you don't notice.

The tense–release cycle

Deliberately tensing a muscle for a few seconds and then releasing it produces a relaxation response deeper than trying to relax directly.

What research shows

Clinical studies associate regular PMR practice with reduced anxiety symptoms, lower muscle tension and shorter time to fall asleep.
