NCT ID NCT06999564

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), a simple tapping therapy, can help first-time mothers feel safer, less anxious, and experience less pain after a planned cesarean section. Sixty women were split into two groups: one received EFT in the first 24 hours after surgery, the other received standard care. The goal is to see if this gentle technique can improve recovery and emotional well-being.
