“…Massage is one of the oldest nonpharmacological methods used by people for treatment 23,24. While massage reduces the burden of the heart by helping venous return, it increases the blood flow to the kidneys with its vasodilatory effect and causes a decrease in lower extremity edema 19,23–25. As heart failure progresses, various compensatory mechanisms occur, including excessive sympathetic nervous system stimulation and sodium and water retention, leading to chronic peripheral vasoconstriction 26.…”

This randomized experimental study was conducted to determine the effect of foot massage on peripheral edema and sleep quality in patients with heart failure. The study sample comprised 60 adult patients (30 intervention and 30 control groups) who met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study. In the intervention group, foot massage was applied once a day for 10 minutes on each foot for a total of 7 days and then peripheral edema and sleep quality were evaluated. No application was made to the control group. Data were collected using a personal information form, a foot measurement record form for monitoring peripheral edema, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Forms were completed at the beginning of administration and at the follow-up at the end of 7 days (baseline and last follow-up). Statistically significant improvements were found in peripheral edema and sleep quality levels of the intervention group compared with the control group, starting from the fourth session of the foot massage application (P < .001).

IntroductionThis study aimed to evaluate the effect of warm water footbaths on comfort, fatigue, and dialysis symptoms in patients undergoing hemodialysis.MethodsData were collected from a total of 58 patients, 31 in the intervention group and 27 in the placebo group. The data in the study are collected using the intervention and control group informed volunteer Form, Patient Demonstration Form, foot Bath Application Monitoring Chart, fatigue VAS Scale Form, Dialysis Symptom Index, and Hemodialysis Comfort Scale (HCS).ResultsIn the second follow‐up in the intervention group, HCS was determined to significantly increase all sub‐size and total score averages by the first trace (p < 0.05). VAS fatigue point averages were significantly lower (p < 0.05) in the intervention group.ConclusionIt was determined that the footbath applied to patients who received hemodialysis treatment increased comfort and reduced fatigue and dialysis symptoms.

“…Massage is defined as the manual or mechanical stimulation of the soft tissues of the body; it increases blood circulation, eliminates the metabolites accumulated in the body, relieves muscle spasm, relaxes the muscles, reduces pain by increasing beta endorphin and serotonin levels, and encourages individuals to relax and sleep (Çetin & Bülbül, 2015). Oils such as glycerin, baby oil, and liquid Vaseline are generally used in massage practice (Aghajani & Kheirkhah, 2016; Çeçen & Lafcı, 2021; Karadag et al, 2014; Lin et al, 2012; Mirbagher‐Ajorpaz et al, 2020; Singh & Vinayadev, 2021; Unal & Balci Akpinar, 2016). The studies conducted on the subject have shown that the massage therapy reduces fatigue severity, RLS severity, and muscle cramps and improves the quality of sleep and life in HD patients (Azimpour et al, 2019; Çeçen & Lafcı, 2021; Malekshahi et al, 2018; Mastnardo et al, 2016; Unal & Balci Akpinar, 2016).…”

This study assessed the effects of massage therapy using 5% lavender oil on the severity of restless legs syndrome (RLS) and the quality of life (QoL) of patients on hemodialysis (HD). Design and methods:This is a randomized placebo-controlled study with a pretestposttest design. This study was conducted from January 30, 2019, to May 6, 2019, at HD centers in Turkey, and it includes 58 participants-31 study patients and 27 controls. Data were collected using patient identification form, RLS severity rating scale, Kidney Disease Quality of Life Scale (KDQOL TM -36) and patient follow-up charts. As per the massage therapy protocol, the patients in the study and control groups received massage therapy with lavender oil and baby oil, respectively.Findings: RLS severity significantly decreased in all follow-up weeks in the study group and in the first, second, and third follow-up weeks in the control group. There were significant differences between the groups in terms of KDQOL TM -36 subscales and total scores at the initial and final follow-ups. Conclusion:In HD patients, massage with lavender oil lessened the severity of RLS and improved the QoL. Accordingly, this therapy can be recommended to HD patients.Clinical relevance: Massage therapy during HD sessions is easy, inexpensive, and patient-friendly with no side effects. It is known to reduce symptoms and enable the patients to easily perform daily activities of living. Massage therapy with lavender oil is effective and can be easily applied to patients with RLS by nurses.
