Abstract

Introduction: Work-related muscle pain is a common health problem among beauty clinic workers due to prolonged standing and repetitive movements. Stretching exercises are recognized as a low-cost, non-pharmacological intervention for preventing and reducing musculoskeletal discomfort. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of supervised and unsupervised stretching programs in reducing muscle pain among beauty clinic workers.   Method: A quasi-experimental study employing a two-group pretest–posttest design was conducted with 84 participants recruited from two beauty clinics in Pasuruan, Indonesia. Participant selection was based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria established by the researchers. At Clinic A, participants received supervised stretching exercises facilitated by a community health nurse, whereas at Clinic B, the same stretching routine was carried out independently using printed guidelines. Pain intensity was assessed using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) both before and after a two-week intervention period. Data analysis was performed with the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and the Mann–Whitney U Test.   Result: Both groups experienced a significant reduction in muscle pain after the intervention (p < 0.001). However, Clinic A showed a greater improvement in pain reduction compared to Clinic B (p = 0.025), indicating the added benefit of professional supervision.   Conclusion: Stretching is an effective strategy for reducing work-related muscle pain, and supervision by community health nurses enhances its effectiveness. This finding supports the integration of structured stretching programs into workplace health promotion, particularly in service sectors with high physical demands. This highlights the vital role of community health nurses in workplace musculoskeletal prevention and the importance of integrating nurse-led initiatives into occupational health programs.   Keywords: Muscle pain, stretching exercise, workplace intervention, community health nursing; beauty clinic workers.

Abstract

Introduction: Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death among women, with cases increasingly found in younger populations. Early detection through breast self-examination (BSE) is an effective preventive measure, yet knowledge among Indonesian adolescents remains limited. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of audiovisual and leaflet-based education in improving knowledge of BSE among adolescent girls.   Method: A quasi-experimental two-group pretest–posttest design was conducted among seventh- and eighth-grade female students at SMP Negeri 1 Peterongan, Jombang, Indonesia. From a population of 264 students, the sample size was determined using the Krejcie and Morgan formula, yielding 157 participants. To balance the groups, 160 students (80 per group) were recruited. Proportional random sampling was applied. Knowledge levels were measured using a validated questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed rank test and One-Way ANOVA.   Result: Before intervention, most students in the audiovisual group demonstrated poor knowledge (52.5%), while most in the leaflet group had moderate knowledge (50%). After intervention, knowledge levels significantly improved in both groups (p < 0.001). In the audiovisual group, 90% achieved good knowledge, whereas in the leaflet group, 60% maintained moderate knowledge. One-Way ANOVA confirmed a significant difference between groups (p < 0.001), with audiovisual media showing greater effectiveness.   Conclusion: Audiovisual education proved more effective than leaflet-based education in enhancing adolescent girls’ knowledge of BSE. Integrating audiovisual methods into school health programs may strengthen early breast cancer awareness and prevention efforts among young populations.   Keywords: Breast self-examination, adolescent girls, audiovisual media, leaflet, health education.
