Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
intervention group
hand massage group
Each individual will receive a 10-minute hand massage, 5 minutes for each hand. Since the speed and number of repetitions of the massage movements should be at normal frequency, the massage will be performed at a speed that does not disturb the individual, is not stimulating and has a calming effect, and will not tire the practitioner. In the massage, effleurage (stroking) and friction (circular rubbing) movements will be used, which have a circulation-supporting and tissue-relaxing effect. Evaluations will be made within 30 minutes after the hand massage.
Control group
No interventions assigned to this group
