The Benson relaxation technique was carried out on caesarean section patients after 2 hours in the treatment room and had not been given analgesics in the room. Before and after the intervention, pain was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale. Benson's relaxation is carried out for 10 minutes.Statistical test results mean the pre-test pain scale (6.00) and post-test (4.77). Based on the research results, it was found that there was a difference in the decrease in the average pain score before and after Benson relaxation for post caesarean section patients.
