The main objective of this study is to examine the effect of the rebozo technique, applied with partner support, on labor pain and birth satisfaction in primiparous pregnant women. This research is planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. A total of 64 pregnant women, 32 in the control group and 32 in the experimental group, who meet the sample selection criteria and agree to participate in the study, will constitute the sample of the study. Participants included in the study will be administered the Informed Consent Form, the "Demographic Information Form" created by the researcher, the "Fathers' Participation in Birth Scale", VAS scoring, "Birth Care Guide", "Observation Form Regarding Labor" and the "Birth Satisfaction Scale". Data will be analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. It is expected that the results obtained will contribute to the use of non-pharmacological methods in the birthing process and the support of partner participation.

Labor Pains
Timeframe: The VAS pain assessment scale is a measurement used to evaluate labor from the active phase (5 cm) to the completion of the first stage (10 cm). The VAS pain score will be used from the beginning of active labor (5 cm) until the moment of birth (10 cm).
Birth Satisfaction
Timeframe: The birth satisfaction scale is an assessment scale administered to women who have completed childbirth, within the first 24 hours after delivery.
