“…Regarding pain level, the current study found that there was no statistically significant difference between the study and the control groups before the intervention, but after the intervention, nearly half of the women in the control group had moderate pain, compared to less than one-sixth of them in the study group, with a statistically significant difference between them p-value (0.001). This on the same line with (Basyouni et al, 2018), who conducted research in Egypt to determine the effect of reflexology on post-cesarean pain, and concluded that there was no statistically significant difference between the massage and control groups in terms of post-CS pain intensity before intervention. After the intervention, however, there was a statistically significant difference between the massage and the control groups.…”

Background: Pain and delayed breastfeeding initiation is the most typical complications following a cesarean operation, which affect women's comfort. Adverse effects of using medications to relieve pain and lack of access to them for some women have led to an increase in the application of non-drug methods such as massage. Aim: To assess the effect of deep tissue massage on women's wound pain, comfort, and breastfeeding after cesarean section. Design: The study employed a single-blinded, randomized clinical trial. Setting: The study was conducted at the postpartum ward at Women's Health Hospital, Assuit University. Subjects: with a convenient sample size of 160 women (divided into two equal groups study and control). Tools: Structured interview, Visual Analogue Scale, Postpartum Comfort Questionnaire, and Breastfeeding Assessment Scale Latch LATCH were the four tools used. In the study group, DTM was implemented. Results: There is a highly statistically significant difference in wound pain, comfort, and breastfeeding following cesarean section between the study and control groups p<0.01. Conclusion: Applying DTM played a vital role in the management of post-cesarean section (CS) pain and improving mothers' comfort, and breastfeeding. Recommendations: DTM should be recommended in hospital protocols for the management of post-cesarean pain that leads to improvement comfort, and encouraging breastfeeding.

“…There are experimental studies in the literature reporting that reflexology is effective in reducing pain after a cesarean section (Basyouni et al, 2018; Deepshika, 2016; Khoshtarash et al, 2012). Although the reflexology procedure applied to pain points on the foot varied in duration (5–30 minutes), number of sessions (1–3 times), and frequency (1–2 times a day) in these studies.…”

“…Non-pharmacological as well as pharmacological applications are frequently used to reduce postpartum symptoms and support breastfeeding (Domínguez-Solís et al, 2021; Manjuri & Latheef, 2016; Mi Son & Lee, 2015; Wang et al, 2020a). Reflexology is one of the non-pharmacological applications that can be used to reduce postpartum symptoms and support breastfeeding (Aksu & Palas Karaca, 2021; Basyouni et al, 2018; Çankaya & Ratwisch, 2020; Li et al, 2011; Mi Son & Lee, 2015). Reflexology is a manual method of applying complementary therapy.…”

“…Previous studies suggest that reflexology is effective in reducing pain after a cesarean section. Basyouni et al (2018) reported pain reduction with a single 10-minute session, and Deepshika (2016) reported that 15 minutes of reflexology performed once a day for the first 3 days reduced pain. Similarly, Khoshtarash et al (2012) determined that reflexology applied for 30 minutes once a day for the first 2 days significantly reduced pain after both the first and second sessions.…”

Background: Mothers commonly experience pain, fatigue, sleep disruption, and breastfeeding problems after cesarean delivery. To date, no follow-up study has examined all of these variables to evaluate the utility of reflexology in reducing these problems and supporting breastfeeding. Research Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of foot reflexology performed in the postpartum period on pain, fatigue, sleep quality, and lactation in primiparous women who underwent cesarean delivery. Methods: This is a two-arm, parallel-group randomized controlled trial. Data were collected between January 1, 2020, and January 31, 2021, with a sample of 80 women who were randomly assigned to the reflexology ( n = 40) and control ( n = 40) groups. The reflexology group received 40 minutes of foot reflexology once a week for 8 weeks. The primary outcomes of the study were pain, fatigue, sleep quality, and breastfeeding efficacy. Results: Pain scores in the reflexology group decreased by 90.9% in week 1, 90.2% in week 2, and 59.8% in week 3 compared to the control group. Pain resolved at week 4 in the reflexology group and week 7 in the control group. The reflexology group showed a 36.9% decrease in fatigue level, a 48.0% increase in energy level, a 70.7% increase in sleep quality, and a 20.2% increase in breastfeeding efficacy compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Foot reflexology reduces postpartum symptoms and positively affects breastfeeding and can be used safely in postnatal care practices.

Afterpains are high prevalent complaints. They lead to neuro-hormonal stress responses. Hoku point massage is used to relieve afterpains. Objective: determine the effect of Hoku point massage on postpartum afterpains intensity among multiparous women. Material and Methods: A quasi-experimental design was conducted at El-Shatby Maternity Hospital. A purposive sample of 100 women who were meeting the inclusion criteria. The control group was receiving routine hospital care and the experimental group was receiving Hoku point massage. Results: statistically significant difference was found between the control and experimental group regarding socio-demographic and reproductive data as well as physiological stability, as evidenced by vital signs, while there was a highly statically significant difference between the control and experimental groups in the favor of Hoku point massage. Conclusions and recommendations: Hoku point massage was effective in the reduction of postpartum afterpains intensity. multiparous women who receive Hoku point massage showed observable behaviors indicating less afterpains intensity than those who do not receive it. Researchers recommended that strict protocols should be established in maternity care units for a comprehensive and routine assessment of afterpains. Further studies should be conducted to verify the findings of this study.
