Summary

The goal of this study is to learn whether tele-rehabilitation helps postpartum women recover from low back pain after a cesarean section (C-section). The study will also look at whether tele-rehabilitation helps reduce fatigue, improve psychological well-being, and make daily activities easier. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does tele-rehabilitation reduce low back pain in postpartum women after a C-section? * Does it reduce postpartum fatigue? * Does it improve psychological well-being? * Does it improve the ability to perform daily activities? Participants will: * Be selected using a computer-generated random sampling method from eligible postpartum women. * Complete assessments before and after the treatment program. * Receive therapeutic exercises and ergonomic education through tele-rehabilitation if assigned to the intervention group. * Receive ergonomic education about posture, breastfeeding, lifting, carrying, and back care if assigned to the control group. * Complete questionnaires about their pain, fatigue, psychological well-being, and ability to perform daily activities. The study may help determine whether tele-rehabilitation is a practical way to provide physiotherapy support to women recovering at home after a C-section.
