A large body of research ties access to nature and green spaces to improvements in both mental
and physical health, but evidence that indoor plants confer similar benefits is scanty, and any
effects that may exist are probably weaker than those we find with outdoor forms of nature, said
Frances E. Kuo, an associate professor of natural resources and environmental sciences at the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

That said, several small studies have found health benefits associated with indoor plants.
A small 1998 Norwegian study reported that workers had fewer complaints of fatigue, cough, dry
throat and itching when they had plants in the office, and experiments in England and the Netherlands
found that employees in buildings with plants were more productive, had better concentration and
greater work satisfaction than those in bare offices.
.
Two randomized controlled trials reported that surgical patients placed in rooms with plants reported
less pain, anxiety, stress and fatigue than patients without plants. Over all, they had lower systolic
blood pressure, were more satisfied about their rooms and felt more positively toward hospital workers.
