NCT ID NCT06811285
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether kinesiological taping (a special tape applied to the skin) or foot massage can help women who had a C-section feel less pain, tiredness, and mood problems. 97 new mothers were split into three groups: one got taping, one got foot massage, and one got standard care. Researchers measured pain, fatigue, and mood at several hours after surgery to see if these gentle treatments made a difference.
