Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
endorphin massage group
The researcher will show husbands how to give endorphin massage to their pregnant wives. Additionally, they will be asked to choose one of three different instrumental relaxation music pieces played without lyrics to help them relax, and the chosen music will be sent to the pregnant women via WhatsApp. They will be instructed to play the music while performing the endorphin massage. Husbands of pregnant women in the experimental group will be asked to apply a total of 20 minutes of endorphin massage within 1 hour, divided into two sessions of 10 minutes each.
Endorphin Massage
The person who will perform the endorphin massage opens his hands with his palms facing himself and draws a semicircle with the nails of his middle, ring and little fingers touching the sacrum. Then, a semicircle is drawn with the fingertips from each side of the spine, starting from the sacrum to the shoulder area, towards the waist area, As a result of this process, a palm shape is drawn on the back. Effleurage is applied from the shoulders to the arms up to the elbows. Effleurage is applied towards the shoulders by pressing from the elbows upwards with the back of the thumb. Effleurage is applied up to the sacrum by pressing circular movements with two thumbs on both sides of the spine. Effleurage is applied from the sacrum to the neck by pressing with two thumbs in a circular motion on both sides of the spine (approximately 1.5 cm apart). Lastly, effleurage is applied to the neck area and scalp, then petrissage (rubbing) is applied and the massage is completed.
