Purpose
This study aims to identify the effects of foot reflexology applied to women on their vasomotor complaints and quality of life. Methods A randomised controlled study was conducted with 120 women. The experimental group received foot reflexology treatment, while the control group received nonspecific foot massage. Results The mean scores for hot flashes, sweats, and night sweats, were lower in the reflexology group than the control group after the practice; and the difference between the groups was statistically significant (p 0.05). Conclusion Results showed that reflexology might be effective in decreasing vasomotor problems and increasing quality of life in women in the menopausal period. |
