About

Giving birth is a fundamental life event that women will remember throughout their lives. While seeking perfection for the birth environment, much can be learned from other areas of expertise and different pursuits can be undertaken. An example of this is "Snoezelen rooms". In the Snoezelen environment, it is aimed to relax the woman by stimulating various senses, including visual and auditory, and by diverting attention. The room design is a combination of light music, aquarium, optical illusions and aromatic oils. This study will be conducted in a randomized controlled manner to examine the effects of a multi-sensory (snoezelen) environment on birth outcomes, newborn health parameters and birth memory.
