A clinical therapeutical trial was carried out in all patients with psoriasis, assisted at "30 de Noviembre" Teaching Polyclinic from Santiago de Cuba , from October, 2005 to October, 2006, to evaluate the effectiveness of the autogenous psychotherapy. The members of the case material were assigned at random to one of 2 groups: those treated with autogenous psychotherapy associated to the conventional treatment (study group) and those that received conventional treatment (control group). The obtained data evidenced that at the beginning of the therapeutic plan all the patients had psoriasis symptoms in outbreaks, but finally the combined therapy was more effective.
