Postoperative pain is a common problem faced by mothers after undergoing a cesarean
section. Effective pain management is essential to accelerate recovery and improve
patient comfort. Acupressure, as a non-invasive treatment technique, has been known to
have the potential to relieve pain by stimulating certain points in the body. This study
aims to determine the effect of acupressure at the H7 and LI4 points on the intensity of
post-cesarean section pain in mothers giving birth at the Bhayangkara Hospital TK1
PUSDOKKES Polri in 2024. This study used a pre-experiment with a pretest-posttest
with a one-group pretest-posttest design. Sampling was carried out using a purposive
sampling technique of 35 respondents. The analysis used a non-parametric test, the
Friedman test. The Friedman test analysis showed a significant effect of acupressure at
the H7 and LI4 points on the intensity of post-cesarean section pain in mothers giving
birth with a p-value of 0.000. Acupressure at the H7 and LI4 points affects the intensity
of post-cesarean section pain in mothers giving birth at the Bhayangkara Hospital Level
1 Pusdokkes Polri in 2024. Mothers giving birth with post-cesarean section surgery are
advised to use the acupressure method to reduce dependence on analgesic drugs,
thereby reducing the risk of side effects of drugs. They can be used as an alternative to
conventional therapy in pain management.
