Abstract
Postpartum is one of the periods with the highest risk of complications during pregnancy. In addition, anxiety is one of the factors that can cause hypertension. One of the non-pharmacological techniques that can be used is a combination of acupressure and lavender aromatherapy. This study aims to prove the effect of combination therapy with acupressure and lavender aromatherapy on reducing blood pressure and anxiety in postpartum women with hypertension. Quasi-experimental research, a pre-test and post-test with a control group design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with the number of subjects 34 respondents divided into two groups. Analysis of the data used to determine the effect of the intervention before and after treatment on blood pressure data was the Wilcoxon test, while the paired t-test was for anxiety data. The Mann-Whitney test was utilized to assess differences in blood pressure, whereas the independent t-test was employed for anxiety. The mean difference in blood pressure and anxiety in each group decreased, but the mean difference in the intervention group was more significant than the control group. The analysis results on the mean post-test of systolic blood pressure showed a value of 134.41 mmHg (p=0.000), the mean post-test of diastolic blood pressure was 89.47 mmHg (p=0.108), and the mean post-test of anxiety score was 9.8 (p=0.001). The combination of acupressure and lavender aromatherapy has been shown to reduce blood pressure and anxiety in postpartum women with hypertension.
