dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The study was conducted to determine the effect of rebozo massage on birth pain, anxiety, and childbirth experience in the intrapartum period. Method: A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 62 primiparous women (31 experimental, 31 control) at the & Scedil;anl & imath;urfa Training and Research Hospital in T & uuml;rkiye. The experimental group received rebozo massage during the latent, active, and transitional phases of childbirth, while the control group received routine hospital care. Results: Pain levels in the experimental group were significantly lower than in the control group in all phases (latent phase F = 78.875, p < .001; active phase F = 71.281, p < .001; transitional phase F = 9.978, p = .002).Discussion: These findings indicate that rebozo massage effectively reduces birth pain by promoting pelvic relaxation and rhythmic movement.Registration: The study was registered with Clinical Trials, and the registration number is NCT05583825.
