Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Today, many complementary therapies such as acupuncture, reflexology, homeopathy, hypnotherapy, music and aromatherapy are tried in addition to medical methods to reduce pain and anxiety. Aromatherapy is a therapy method in which essential oils are used to protect and improve physical and psychological health. Oils can be applied directly to a single person or indirectly to people in a room by inhalation . In direct application without steam, essential oils can be applied by inhalation by dripping onto a cotton ball . It is stated that lavender aromatherapy, one of the most commonly used aromatherapies, has analgesic, antiseptic, sedative, antispasmodic and healing properties Ylang Ylang aromatherapy is stated analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiemetic,anti-tarral, carminative, sedative, antiseptic, spasmolytic properties. In the studies conducted, anxiety, labor pain, labor duration, and psychological effects of aromatherapy were examined, but no study was found in which lavender and chamomile essential oils were used and the effects of pain and comfort level were examined. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of lavender and Ylang Ylang essential oils in relieving pain and increasing comfort after cesarean section.
