Summary

This study looked at whether a simple hand massage technique (similar to acupressure) can help pregnant women with low back pain feel better. 74 pregnant women with back pain received the massage, and researchers measured their pain and comfort levels. The goal was to see if this gentle, non-drug approach could be a safe way to ease discomfort in late pregnancy.
