Result: In our study we have seen that At the Pre- Jacobson's technique the pain as per the VAS in post C-section groups were coparable with each other (X2=0.00, p>0.01,df=1). After Jacobson's technique the pain as per VAS in Group A was significantly lower as compared to Group B (X2=6.66,p<0.01,df=1). Conclusion: It can be concluded from our study that Jacobson's technique significantly reduces pain perception after C-section and this being the non pharmacological technique should be suggested to every post C-section patients
