Hi all, I am a nursing student from the Netherlands and am trying to find info on measures that reduce levels of agression/agitation in psychotic patients without meds. Specifically, does anyone know something about the effectiveness of physical exertion regarding reducing aggression/agitation, eg. punching a punching bag (I read this in Mary Townsends book on diagnoses). Any help would be much appreciated, especially references to articles and research papers. Manolo
