Relaxation therapy for dialysis patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining two relaxation methods—autogenic relaxation (a self-guided technique) and murottal therapy (listening to Quranic recitation)—can help reduce stress and improve well-being in people on dialysis. Participants will receive one or both treatments during their dialysis sessions.
