Abstract

Background: Musculoskeletal pain is a complaint that occurs in parts of the skeletal muscles which is felt by a person ranging from mild complaints to very painful. This study aimed to analyze the effects of perceived vulnerability, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy on risky behavior in patients complaining of musculoskeletal pain treated with acupuncture. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in Surakarta, from November-December 2023. A total of 200 patients were selected using fixed disease sampling. The dependent variable was risk behavior for musculoskeletal pain. The independent variables were perceived vulnerability, perceived vulnerability, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, cues to action, and self-efficacy. The data were analyzed using a multiple linear regression. Results: Musculoskeletal pain risk behaviors (MSDs) decreased with increasing perceived susceptibility (b= -0.22; 95% CI= -0.29 to -0.16; p<0.001), perceived benefit (b= -0.09; 95% CI= -0.13 to -0.05; p<0.001), and self-efficacy (b= -0.06; 95% CI= -0.11 to -0.01; p=0.015) and increased with increasing perceived barriers (b= 0.05; 95% CI= 0.02 to 0.09; p= 0.002). Conclusion: Perceived vulnerability, perceived benefits, and self-efficacy decrease risk behavior in musculoskeletal pain patients, and perceived barriers increase risk behavior in musculoskeletal patients.

Abstract

Hilman Rama Pratama / 224110019 / 2025 / The Effectiveness of Qing Fei Pai Du Tang Herbal Therapy on Joint Pain with a Diagnosis of Cold-Damp Syndrome (Han Shi Zheng) at the BSM Therapy Center Jakarta / Dr. Hari Iskandar Kang, B.C.M., M.C.M. Joint pain that arises after COVID-19 infection is a common manifestation of post- COVID conditions, often referred to as Long COVID. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this condition is classified as Han Shi Zheng (cold-damp syndrome), characterized by joint stiffness, severe pain, and worsening symptoms in cold or humid environments. Qing Fei Pai Du Tang (QFPDT) is a classical herbal formula traditionally used to expel cold-damp pathogens, promote the circulation of Qi and Xue (blood), and warm the meridians. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of QFPDT in reducing joint pain among patients diagnosed with Han Shi Zheng. A quasi-experimental one-group pre–post test design was applied, involving 30 patients at the BSM Therapy Center in Jakarta. Participants received QFPDT at a dosage of 6 grams per day for seven consecutive days. Evaluations were conducted using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, structured interviews, and tongue observations before and after therapy. The results showed an average reduction of 3.1 points in VAS scores, with 80% of participants experiencing significant pain relief. Tongue color changes from pale or purple to pink indicated improved Qi circulation and a reduction in pathological dampness. No serious adverse effects were reported. These findings demonstrate that QFPDT is clinically effective as a supportive therapy for alleviating joint pain in patients with Han Shi Zheng.

Abstract

Based on WHO data in 2019, vertigo was experienced by 7.4% of the global population aged 18–79 years. In Indonesia, Basic Health Research (2023) reported a very high prevalence of vertigo, making it the third most common complaint in hospitals, with a prevalence rate of 50% in the 40–50-year age group. A preliminary survey at the Divine Nature Health Center in 2024 confirmed the high number of vertigo cases, with an average of 500 patients every three months, of which liver yang hyperactivity syndrome was the most frequent (300 patients per three months). This research aims to determine the effect of the Tianma Gouteng Yin formula therapy on vertigo patients with liver yang hyperactivity syndrome. The study employed a quantitative method using a pre-experimental one-group pre–post test design. Fifty research subjects were selected through purposive sampling between March and June 2025. Subjects aged 40–50 years received Tianma Gouteng Yin therapy twice daily at 2 grams for one week. Measurements were conducted using the VSS-SF questionnaire before and after therapy. Results showed that the average VSS-SF score decreased from 10.6 (pretest) to 2.96 (posttest). Statistical analysis indicated an asymp. sig. value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) and an effect size (r = -0.869), demonstrating that Tianma Gouteng Yin formula therapy has a significant and strong effect in reducing VSS-SF scores in vertigo patients with liver yang hyperactivity syndrome.

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, accounting for approximately 7.5 million deaths annually. In Indonesia, the prevalence of hypertension has shown an increasing trend over the years. According to the 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas), 34.1% of the Indonesian population suffers from hypertension. Hypertension is a pathophysiological condition characterized by elevated blood pressure above the normal limit of 120/80 mmHg. Acupuncture therapy has been shown to lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in patients with Liver Yang Hyperactivity Syndrome-related hypertension. This study aims to determine the effect of acupuncture therapy on blood pressure reduction in patients with hypertension due to Liver Yang Hyperactivity Syndrome. This research used a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design, specifically a one-group pre-test and post-test design. A total of 20 participants were selected through purposive sampling at the Sumber Sehat Acupuncture Foundation, Bandung, from March to June 2025. The sample consisted of individuals aged 40–60 years who underwent four sessions of acupuncture therapy over four consecutive days. Blood pressure was measured before and after the treatment period. Statistical analysis showed a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure, from an average of 153 mmHg to 130 mmHg (p = 0.000), and in diastolic pressure, from 87 mmHg to 75 mmHg (p = 0.000), following acupuncture therapy. Traditional Chinese Medicine, particularly acupuncture, is statistically proven to significantly reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Therefore, acupuncture can be considered a complementary alternative in hypertension management.

Abstract

Knee pain is a common musculoskeletal complaint, particularly in the elderly. This disorder involves damage or dysfunction to structures such as bones, knee joints, and surrounding soft tissues, including nerves, tendons, ligaments, muscles, and blood vessels. One non-pharmacological approach proven effective in treating knee pain is acupuncture therapy. This therapy plays a role in improving blood circulation, stimulating cartilage matrix repair, reducing joint space narrowing, and helping to gradually relieve pain. This study was conducted from September to April 2025 at the Panti Sasana Tresna Wredha Yayasan Dharma Bakti in Wonogiri Regency. A sample of 32 patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. They were then treated with a combination of Angco/Jujube (Ziziphus Jujube) herbal infusion and local acupuncture therapy. This study used a quantitative, quasi-experimental design with a two-group pre- and post-test design. Knee pain severity was measured using the VRS (Verbal Rating Scale). Based on the Mann-Whitney test, a significant value of ρ = 0.035 was obtained. This means that acupuncture therapy combined with Angco/Jujube (Ziziphus Jujube) herbal infusions is effective in reducing knee pain. Based on this study, it was concluded that combination therapy using Angco/Jujube (Ziziphus Jujube) herbal infusions is effective in reducing knee pain at the Panti Sasana Tresna Wredha Yayasan Dharma Bakti Wonogiri Regency.

Abstract

Lower back pain is a common health issue that significantly affects productivity and imposes a considerable economic burden on individuals and society. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture in reducing lower back pain at Kebun Rumput Acupuncture Clinic in Cimahi. A quantitative observational design was used with 20 respondents, consisting of 10 men and 10 women, all experiencing lower back pain. Pain levels were assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) before and after six sessions of acupuncture therapy. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Wilcoxon test to determine any significant changes in pain levels. The results indicated a significant reduction in pain, with an average decrease of 5.4 points on the pain scale. The p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) confirmed that acupuncture significantly alleviated lower back pain. The findings suggest that acupuncture is an effective alternative therapy for managing lower back pain, contributing to improved quality of life for patients. Further promotion of acupuncture as part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is recommended, alongside increased education and training for healthcare professionals to enhance its acceptance and scientific validation.
