Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
To the best of the researcher's knowledge, no comparative study has been done to yet to evaluate the efficacy of relaxation and stretching exercise. There is not enough data to determine whether Jacobson's relaxation techniques and stretching exercise reduce preeclampsia in pregnant women. As a result, this study will contribute to the expanding body of knowledge about which approach should be used as an alternative if results from other procedures are comparable
