Summary
This study looked at whether Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), a method that involves tapping on specific body points, can help postmenopausal women feel less pain and anxiety before a probe curettage (a uterine biopsy). 132 women participated, and researchers measured their pain, anxiety levels, and vital signs. The goal was to see if this simple, drug-free technique could make the procedure more comfortable.
