The incidence of hypertension in Padang City is 46.7%. Hypertension is usually controlled pharmacologically through diuretics, beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, or calcium channel blockers. Long-term use of antihypertensive drugs can affect metabolic aspects, worsen serum lipids, and reduce glucose tolerance. Acupressure therapy on LV3 and LI4 points stimulates specific meridian points in the body using fingers to influence particular organs and activate energy flow in the body. The combination of orange peel oil and lemongrass oil induces a relaxing effect, warming the body and improving blood flow. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of combining acupressure therapy with orange peel oil and lemongrass oil in reducing hypertension.
