Postoperative pain after cesarean section is one of the main problems that affect the comfort and recovery process of mothers. Inadequate pain management can affect the physical and psychological function of patients. Autogenic relaxation therapy, which involves self-relaxation techniques, is believed to help reduce pain intensity through control of physiological and emotional responses. The purpose of this study was to analyze journals on autogenic therapy for reducing pain in mothers with post-cesarean section surgery. Data collection method using a literature review study method using the Google Scholar journal database in the last 10 years, as many as 5 appropriate journals showed that there was an effect of autogenic therapy on reducing pain given on average for 3 days after 4 to 6 hours after surgery. The conclusion from the results of the analysis was a decrease in pain after autogenic relaxation therapy was given.
