Hypertension is a condition marked by elevated blood pressure, increasing risks of morbidity and mortality. Non-pharmacological treatments such as Tera exercise and acupressure therapy at the Taichong point offer alternative interventions. Tera exercise combines breathing techniques and body movements to reduce anxiety and promote vasodilation, thereby lowering blood pressure. Acupressure at the Taichong point facilitates energy flow, also contributing to blood pressure reduction. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of Tera exercise and Taichong point acupressure in lowering blood pressure among hypertensive patients. A two-group pre-post design was employed with a sample of 44 respondents selected through purposive sampling. Blood pressure data were collected using observation sheets. In the Tera exercise group (n=22), the average systolic pressure decreased from 148.77 mmHg to 143.77 mmHg, and diastolic pressure from 88.00 mmHg to 83.00 mmHg. In the acupressure group (n=22), systolic pressure reduced from 153.36 mmHg to 147.50 mmHg, and diastolic from 92.86 mmHg to 84.00 mmHg. Paired t-test analysis showed a significant difference (p-value = 0.000 < α = 0.05), indicating that acupressure therapy at the Taichong point is more effective in reducing blood pressure. This study concludes that while both therapies are effective, acupressure yields greater reductions and is recommended as a non-pharmacological treatment for hypertension in Trading Village, Tiris District, Probolinggo Regency.

Knee osteoarthritis is a global health issue with increasing prevalence, particularly among the elderly population. This condition is characterized by primary symptoms such as joint pain, stiffness, and reduced physical function, which significantly limit the patient's daily activities. One promising non-pharmacological approach to managing knee osteoarthritis is Home-Based Resistance Training (HBRT). HBRT combines the effectiveness of resistance training with the convenience of being performed at home and is increasingly supported by advancements in telerehabilitation technology. This study is a systematic review conducted based on the PRISMA-P guidelines, with literature searches from PubMed, Scopus, Semantic Scholar, Google Scholar, and Cochrane databases. The included articles were English-language publications from 2019 to 2024 that evaluated the effectiveness of HBRT in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The findings indicate that HBRT is significantly effective in reducing joint pain, with a decrease in WOMAC scores ranging from 24.78% to 29.64% (p < 0.001), and improving physical function by 21.54% to 30.2%. These improvements meet the Minimum Clinically Important Difference (MCID) criteria, indicating clinically significant benefits. Furthermore, the effectiveness of HBRT is comparable to machine-based training, particularly in patients with high baseline severity. With standardized exercise protocols and adequate technological support, HBRT can be considered a feasible and effective intervention strategy in the rehabilitation of knee osteoarthritis patients, especially in the digital era and in contexts where access to conventional healthcare facilities is limited.
