Detailed Description: A quasi-experimental research was conducted in the main University Hospital, Alexandria, Egypt. A total of 60 women were randomly allocated to one of two groups.; women in the study group practiced seated exercises and psychological rehabilitation interventions. Researchers prepared a health education unit and designed a booklet about seated exercises and psychological interventions. The developed program was applied to each patients using teach-back method. Seated Exercises In the sitting position, women were instructed to perform different types of exercises. Researchers demonstrated each exercise and asked women to practice preoperatively to be ready for re-demonstrating them after surgery. Patients were asked to perform the exercise repeatedly until mastering the necessary skills.
