Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a chronic disease that can cause various serious complications and requires appropriate treatment. In addition to pharmacological therapy, non-pharmacological interventions such as warm immersion hydrotherapy can be used to help lower blood pressure. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of warm immersion hydrotherapy on lowering blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Method: The method used was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest–posttest design without a control group. The intervention was carried out by soaking the feet or lower body in warm water for 15–20 minutes. Blood pressure was measured before and after the intervention. Result: The results showed a decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after warm immersion hydrotherapy. Conclusion: It can be concluded that warm immersion hydrotherapy is effective as a complementary therapy in helping to lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients.

Abstract

Background: Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels and a risk of various complications, thus requiring proper management. In addition to pharmacological therapy, non-pharmacological interventions such as foot exercises and warm water soaking with ginger can be used to help control blood glucose levels and improve peripheral circulation. Objective: To determine the effect of the combination of foot exercises and warm water soaking with ginger on changes in blood glucose levels in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. Methods: This study used a case study design with a one-subject pre–post intervention approach. The subject was a patient with Diabetes Mellitus. The intervention consisted of foot exercises and warm water soaking with ginger, administered routinely for seven days. Blood glucose levels were evaluated on day 1, day 3, and day 7. Results: Blood glucose levels remained high on day 1 and day 3 but decreased on day 7, although they had not yet reached normal levels. In addition, the patient reported increased comfort, reduced tension in the lower extremities, and improved peripheral circulation. Conclusion: The combination of foot exercises and warm water soaking with ginger has the potential to be a complementary therapy in helping to reduce blood glucose levels in patients with Diabetes Mellitus, but it still needs to be combined with medical therapy and a healthy lifestyle.
