Sacral Massage With a Tennis Ball on Labor Pain and Comfort During the Intrapartum Period

When the cervical dilatation in labor is 5-6 cm, 7-8 cm and 9-10 cm, the woman will be asked to mark the intensity of the pain she feels on the VAS scale before starting the procedure. Then, the researcher explains sacral massage to the pregnant woman. While performing this application, the researcher will apply pressure to the sacral area with a tennis ball in a circular motion so that the patient can feel but not feel pain. The application will be applied to the pregnant woman for a total of 3 contractions. 30 minutes after each procedure, the woman will be asked to mark the intensity of the pain she feels on the VAS scale and mark the Birth Comfort Scale. The research will end when a total of 70 experimental groups and 70 control groups are reached.
