The evaluation of the elongation effect was conducted by 1, 3 and 5 months. Before intervention, experimental group presented higher trait (p= 0.005) and state anxiety mean (p= 0.049), compared to control group. There was a decrease in the state anxiety mean with 1 (p= 0.028), 3 (p= 0.031) and 5 months (p= 0.010) in experimental group. Physical (p= 0.002), psychological (p= 0.010) and social relations domain (p= 0.026) showed an increase in quality of life. Reichian Elongation contributes in reducing the symptoms of anxiety and improving the students’ quality of life.
