Abstract Back pain in the third trimester of pregnancy is a common complaint due to the increased size of the uterus, which puts greater pressure on the back area. This condition often disrupts the daily activities of pregnant women and causes discomfort during pregnancy. Back pain is frequently experienced by pregnant women, especially in the third trimester, and this condition can affect the quality of life and comfort of the mother. Massage endorphin is one of the non-pharmacological therapy methods that functions to stimulate the release of endorphin hormone, thereby helping to reduce pain and provide relaxation and comfort effects, The provision of care through endorphin massage techniques aims to help reduce back pain complaints in pregnant women in the third trimester. The technique applied is massage endorphin that focuses on relaxation efforts so that mothers feel calmer and more comfortable. This community service activity employed an observational method. The subjects were third-trimester pregnant women experiencing back pain who were willing to receive midwifery care through endorphin massage. This activity also aimed to enhance education about endorphin massage as a complementary therapy for reducing pain, both during pregnancy and childbirth. Based on the explicitly and tangibly achieved results in the field during the activity, outcomes measured via pre-post questionnaires/interviews/observation of the application of endorphin massage proved effective in gradually reducing back pain intensity. It is hoped that this technique can be applied to help third-trimester pregnant women manage back pain. Keywords: massage; endorphins; pain; back; pregnant women.]]>
