  • 摘要:This study was conducted in order to determine the foot reflexology and activity of behavior therapy in the patients who have overactive bladder syndrome.In the study, behavior therapy (Bladder Training Diet Modifications) and foot reflexology were applied together. Foot reflexology treatment was performed for 12 sessions and each session took 45 to 60 minutes to complete. For data collection, a descriptive information form, The Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7), Urinary Diaries and The 24 Hour Pad Test were administered. Assessments were done in two steps (prior to treatment and 3 months after treatment).The primary outcome measure was the change in the diurnal micturition frequency. It was found that urgency and urgency incontinence episodes were significantly lower after treatment.  According to study findings, foot reflexology, which was added to behavior therapy (Bladder Training Diet Modifications), reduced most of urinary symptoms and affected quality of life positively in women with overactive bladder complaints.
