<p>Cesarean section (C-section) is a common surgical procedure for<br>childbirth, often associated with significant postoperative pain and<br>psychological stress for mothers. Pharmacological pain management is<br>crucial, but complementary and alternative therapies are increasingly<br>explored to enhance recovery and well-being. Benson’s Relaxation<br>Therapy (BRT), a mind-body technique rooted in meditation principles,<br>has shown promise in managing pain and stress in various clinical<br>populations. This review examines the existing evidence regarding<br>the effectiveness of BRT in alleviating post-cesarean pain and stress<br>among postnatal mothers. We explore the potential mechanisms of<br>action, summarize findings from relevant studies, discuss limitations,<br>and highlight implications for clinical practice and future research.<br>While the evidence base is still evolving, preliminary findings suggest<br>that BRT may offer a valuable, non-pharmacological approach to<br>support postnatal mothers in their recovery after C-section, potentially<br>reducing pain perception, mitigating stress responses, and promoting<br>overall well-being.</p> <p>How to cite this article:<br>Singh P, Lata S, Verma T, Sharma L K.
