This study used seven types of complementary therapy, but the most used for Odapus were only three types, namely exercise therapy in the form of walking and cycling, which are physical activities that can improve blood flow and reduce cytokines that can trigger inflammation. Sholat and Do’a, two types of spiritual therapy, provide psychological peace so that the body relaxes, Odapus is not stressed, and does not release corticosteroid hormones to prevent recurrence. The three traditional medical therapies are in the form of using herbs, which must be communicated with health workers because some herbs are immunostimulatory, so Odapus cannot be consumed, and there are herbs that have anti-inflammatory properties. In conclusion, most Odapus in South Sumatra use complementary therapy.
