Abstract

Background: Hypertension is often accompanied by headache and neck pain due to increased blood pressure. In addition to pharmacological therapy, a combination of lavender and ylang-ylang aro-matherapy can be used as a complementary therapy to help reduce pain intensity. The purpose of this study was to describe the results of applying combined lavender and ylang-ylang aromatherapy on pain intensity in hypertensive patients in the working area of the Ngoresan Community Health Center, Surakarta. The method used was a case study with a qualitative descriptive approach involving two hypertensive patients. The intervention was administered for 10 minutes, once a day, for seven consecutive days. Pain intensity was measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the intervention. The results showed that before the intervention, both respondents experienced moderate pain with a scale of 6. After seven days of aromatherapy administration, pain intensity decreased to mild pain, namely from a scale of 6 to 2 in the first respondent and from a scale of 6 to 1 in the second respondent. The conclusion is that, based on the results obtained over seven days, the combination of lavender and ylang-ylang aromatherapy helped reduce pain intensity in hypertensive patients, so that it can be used as a complementary therapy alongside pharmacological therapy.
