Abstract

Stress during pregnancy is a common psychological condition that may negatively affect maternal well-being and pregnancy outcomes. Persistent stress can increase the risk of anxiety, sleep disturbances, emotional instability, and adverse maternal and fetal health outcomes. Therefore, safe and non-pharmacological interventions are needed to help pregnant women manage psychological stress during pregnancy. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of acupressure wristband therapy in reducing stress levels among third-trimester pregnant women. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The study was conducted at TMPB Bidan Yayat Haryatini and involved 30 third-trimester pregnant women selected through purposive sampling. Stress levels were assessed before and after the intervention using a structured stress questionnaire. Participants were instructed to use an acupressure wristband positioned at the P6 (Nei Guan) acupressure point according to the intervention protocol. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test analysis at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the mean pretest stress score was 60.83 ± 3.270, while the mean posttest stress score decreased to 42.43 ± 2.932. Statistical analysis demonstrated a significant difference between pretest and posttest stress scores (mean difference = 18.400; t = 202.261; p < 0.001). Participants also reported feeling more relaxed, experiencing reduced anxiety, improved sleep quality, and greater emotional comfort following the intervention. The findings indicate that acupressure wristband therapy is effective in reducing stress levels among third-trimester pregnant women. This study contributes empirical evidence supporting the use of wearable complementary therapies as a practical, safe, and non-pharmacological intervention in maternal healthcare. The results may serve as a basis for integrating acupressure wristband therapy into antenatal care programs to support maternal psychological well-being.

Abstract

The first year of life is a critical period for infant growth and development. During this stage, optimal stimulation is essential to support physical growth, neurological maturation, and developmental achievements. Infant massage is recognized as a non-pharmacological intervention that may enhance growth and development through tactile stimulation, improved circulation, better sleep quality, and enhanced parent–infant interaction. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of infant massage therapy on the growth and development of six-month-old infants at Aster Clinic. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The study involved 20 infants aged six months who received infant massage therapy once a week for one month. Data were collected through measurements of body weight and developmental assessment scores before and after the intervention. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the mean body weight increased from 6.36 kg before the intervention to 7.00 kg after the intervention. In addition, the mean developmental score increased from 12.3 to 17.4. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences in both growth and developmental outcomes before and after infant massage therapy (p < 0.001). These findings indicate that infant massage therapy effectively improves physical growth and developmental performance among six-month-old infants. The study highlights the potential of infant massage as a simple, safe, and cost-effective intervention to support early childhood growth and development. The originality of this research lies in the simultaneous evaluation of growth and developmental outcomes following infant massage therapy in six-month-old infants. The findings provide evidence to support the integration of infant massage into maternal and child health promotion programs.

Abstract

Labor pain is a natural component of childbirth; however, excessive pain may negatively affect maternal physical and psychological well-being. Effective pain management is therefore essential to improve maternal comfort and promote a positive childbirth experience. Essential oil aromatherapy has emerged as a complementary therapy that may reduce pain perception through physiological and psychological relaxation mechanisms. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of essential oil aromatherapy in reducing labor pain among women giving birth at Zhafira Zharifa Clinic. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. A total of 30 women undergoing normal labor participated in the study. Labor pain intensity was assessed before and after the administration of essential oil aromatherapy through inhalation. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a Paired Sample t-Test with a significance level of 0.05. The results revealed that the mean labor pain score decreased from 67.8 before the intervention to 48.6 after the administration of aromatherapy. Statistical analysis demonstrated a significant difference between pretest and posttest pain scores (p = 0.000). These findings indicate that essential oil aromatherapy effectively reduces labor pain among women during childbirth. The reduction in pain intensity may be associated with the stimulation of the limbic system, which promotes relaxation and enhances the release of endorphins and serotonin, thereby decreasing pain perception. The findings suggest that essential oil aromatherapy can be integrated into maternity care as a safe, simple, non-invasive, and cost-effective complementary intervention for labor pain management. The originality of this study lies in its evaluation of aromatherapy effectiveness within a primary healthcare maternity setting using a pretest–posttest approach and direct measurement of labor pain intensity. The study contributes additional empirical evidence supporting the use of complementary therapies in improving maternal comfort during childbirth.

Abstract

Dysmenorrhea is one of the most common reproductive health problems experienced by adolescent girls and frequently interferes with daily activities, academic performance, and overall quality of life. Although pharmacological treatments are commonly used to manage menstrual pain, non-pharmacological approaches are increasingly recommended due to their safety, affordability, and minimal side effects. Warm compress therapy is a simple intervention that may reduce menstrual pain by improving blood circulation, relaxing muscles, and decreasing uterine spasms. This study aimed to analyze the effect of warm compress therapy on menstrual pain among adolescent girls at Sehati Senior High School, Karawang. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. A total of 30 adolescent girls experiencing dysmenorrhea participated in the study. Menstrual pain intensity was assessed before and after the administration of warm compress therapy using a standardized pain measurement scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a Paired Sample t-Test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the mean menstrual pain score decreased from 6.8 before the intervention to 3.2 after the administration of warm compress therapy. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest pain scores (p = 0.000), indicating that warm compress therapy effectively reduced menstrual pain among adolescent girls. The reduction in pain intensity is associated with improved local blood circulation, muscle relaxation, and decreased uterine contractions. The findings imply that warm compress therapy can be implemented as a safe, simple, inexpensive, and easily accessible intervention for managing dysmenorrhea among adolescents. The originality of this study lies in its evaluation of warm compress therapy within a secondary school setting using a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest approach and direct measurement of pain intensity. The study provides additional empirical evidence supporting the integration of non-pharmacological pain management strategies into adolescent reproductive health programs and school health services.
