Introduction: Pain is a common issue in the elderly. Osteoarthritis is often encountered in the elderly and contributes significantly to pain. Pain complaints involve multifactorial and often face many hindrances in the management. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of spirotive relaxation techniques in reducing osteoarthritis pain scale in the elderly. Methods: This quasi-experimental study used the Pre-Post Test Control Group Design, conducted in the Penyengat Olak and Sungai Duren Community Health Center, Jambi Province, Indonesia, from September to November 2021. Sixty-four elderly participants in this study were divided into Spirotive relaxation exercise and dhikr as the intervention group and the control group given Spirotive relaxation exercise only. Data analysis used t-test and independent t-test at a significant level of 95%. Results: There are differences in pain levels of the intervention group before and after Spirotive relaxation exercise and dhikr. Before the intervention, pain levels were moderate to severe, and pain levels were mild to moderate after the intervention. Similar results were also obtained in the control group given Spirotive relaxation exercise only with a significant reduction in pain. The independent test results showed a p-value = 0.207, indicating no difference in osteoarthritis pain in the intervention and control groups. Conclusion: Spiritual relaxation exercises have been shown to reduce pain levels in the elderly with osteoarthritis. There are also differences in the level of joint pain scale in the intervention and control groups. It suggests that public health centers provide non-pharmacological inspirational interventions as an additional therapy for the elderly. |
