The Effect of Ho'Oponopono Technique on Ostomy Adjustment, Body Image, and Quality of Life
Sponsor: Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effects of the Ho'oponopono technique applied to patients with colostomy on ostomy adaptation, body image, and quality of life. Evidence from the existing literature suggests that the Ho'oponopono technique exerts beneficial effects on individuals' disease management and psychological well-being. However, to date, no studies have examined the application of the Ho'oponopono technique in individuals with ostomy or evaluated its outcomes in this population. Therefore, this study is expected to contribute to the nursing literature, support the integration of the Ho'oponopono technique into nursing practice, and provide evidence-based guidance for nursing care related to colostomy.
