"Patients will receive a neck massage based on Watson's Human Caring Model in addition to standard medical care. The massage will be performed three times a week for eight weeks, totaling 24 sessions. Sessions will last 30 minutes and follow evidence-based nursing interventions. Care will be individualized and delivered in a calming environment.~Pre- and post-intervention assessments will include the Epilepsy Self-Efficacy Scale and the Epilepsy Symptom Management Scale for patients, and the Zarit Burden Interview for caregivers. Caregivers will also complete an introductory form. All data will be collected at baseline and after eight weeks. The massage's impact on both patient outcomes and caregiver burden will be evaluated."
