Abstract

Osteoartritis merupakan penyakit sendi degeneratif yang sering terjadi pada lansia dan menjadi salah satu penyebab utama nyeri kronis yang dapat mengganggu aktivitas sehari-hari serta menurunkan kualitas hidup. Salah satu intervensi nonfarmakologis yang dapat digunakan untuk membantu mengurangi nyeri adalah terapi pijat meridian. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mendeskripsikan hasil penerapan terapi pijat meridian terhadap penurunan intensitas nyeri pada lansia dengan osteoartritis. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain studi kasus pada seorang lansia dengan osteoartritis yang mengalami nyeri kronis. Intervensi berupa terapi pijat meridian diberikan sebanyak lima kali intervensi foot massage selama periode 25 Februari hingga 2 Maret 2025. Setiap sesi berlangsung selama 15–30 menit. Intensitas nyeri diukur menggunakan Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) sebelum dan sesudah intervensi. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan adanya penurunan intensitas nyeri setelah pemberian terapi pijat meridian pada setiap pertemuan. Pada intervensi foot massage pertama, skala nyeri menurun dari 7/10 menjadi 6/10. Pada intervensi kedua dan ketiga, nyeri menurun hingga skala 5/10 setelah intervensi. Pada intervensi keempat, nyeri berkurang dari 6/10 menjadi 5/10, sedangkan pada intervensi terakhir nyeri menurun dari 6/10 menjadi 4/10. Selain itu, klien melaporkan merasa lebih rileks dan nyaman setelah terapi serta mampu melakukan teknik pijat meridian secara mandiri setelah diberikan edukasi. Kesimpulan penelitian ini yaitu terapi pijat meridian menunjukkan hasil positif dalam menurunkan intensitas nyeri pada lansia dengan osteoartritis. Intervensi ini berpotensi menjadi alternatif terapi nonfarmakologis yang mudah diterapkan untuk membantu pengelolaan nyeri pada lansia.
