Summary

This study looks at whether a simple breathing exercise called box breathing can help older adults (65+) recover from knee replacement surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces stress, pain, anxiety, and improves overall recovery. Thirty-two participants will either practice box breathing or watch a relaxing video after surgery, and researchers will measure stress hormones and survey their well-being.
