This study aimed to analyze the effect of eucalyptus aromatherapy on headache intensity in patients with hypertension in the working area of Puskesmas Dumbayabulan. The method used was a quasi-experimental study with a non-equivalent control group design. The results of this study showed that there was a significant difference in the reduction of headache intensity between the intervention group that received eucalyptus aromatherapy and the control group that did not receive the intervention, with a p-value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). In conclusion, eucalyptus aromatherapy has an effect on reducing headache intensity in patients with hypertension and can be considered as a non-pharmacological therapy to help reduce headaches in hypertensive patients.
