Abstract
Limitations in physical activity reduce independence and often lead elderly individuals to spend more time at home, which can increase anxiety and stress, ultimately lowering quality of life. Self-exercise therapy and relaxation are alternative forms of exercise that can be performed independently, economically, and easily by the elderly to help prevent a sedentary lifestyle. Therefore, research on the impact of self-exercise and relaxation on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in older adults is important. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of self-exercise and relaxation on HRQoL in the elderly, focusing on four indicators: physical health, mental health, social relations, and environment. The study used a quasi-experimental design with pre- and post-tests to assess changes before and after the intervention. The intervention was conducted once a week for two months. The sample included 45 men and women aged 60 years or older. The WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire, which is valid and reliable (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.91, α < 0.01), was used to measure physical health, mental health, social relationships, and environment. The results demonstrated significant improvements in all measured indicators: physical health (p = 0.006), mental health (p = 0.043), social relations (p = 0.019), and environment (p = 0.002). In conclusion, self-exercise and relaxation therapy performed once a week for two months significantly improved the quality of life of elderly participants across all key indicators. This program can be implemented by physiotherapists in elderly homes or care centers, supports rehabilitation in individuals with mobility disorders, reduces pain, increases balance, and may help prevent falls.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG7D197AH8

Abstract
Neck pain is a condition characterized by discomfort in the cervical region and is commonly experienced by many individuals. Pain serves as the body’s natural signal of an underlying problem. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of self-massage using the Manurak method in reducing pain, improving range of motion (ROM), and enhancing neck function in individuals with neck pain. This quasi-experimental study utilized a one-group experimental design with a sample of 20 participants experiencing neck pain. The study was conducted in the Special Region of Yogyakarta using a home care approach. Variables measured during the pretest and posttest included pain level, assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), range of motion measured with a goniometer, and function assessed using the Neck Disability Index (NDI). Data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially using the paired t-test and the Wilcoxon test.
The results indicate that self-massage using the Manurak method is effective in the management of neck pain, as evidenced by reduced pain, increased ROM, and improved function, with a significance level of p = 0.000. Based on these results, it can be concluded that self-massage using the Manurak method is an effective and significant simple intervention for non-specific neck pain, as demonstrated by pain reduction, increased range of motion, and improved function, particularly in the acute phase.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG2EF8Sbq

Abstract
Traditional sports games have become an important part of the cultural heritage we inherited from our ancestors. However, with the development of technology and changes in modern lifestyles, traditional sports games have seen a decline in popularity among children. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the role of traditional sports games in increasing children’s endurance in an innovative way.  This research uses a qualitative descriptive research model that is a literature study that uses various literature reviews in strengthening research analysis. This research began by collecting some literature, then conducted a review and the collected literature was analyzed with a critical Apprasial table of 10 literature. The results showed that traditional sports games were able to provide significant benefits for children’s endurance. Through these games, children develop motor skills, body coordination, and balance. They also learn to cope with challenges, develop social skills, such as cooperation and communication, and gain a sense of pride in their cultural heritage.  In addition, the introduction of traditional sports games adapted to innovative elements, such as the use of technology or the setting of new rules, can increase children’s interest in participating. This allows them to maintain a connection to the traditions of the past while experiencing the joys and challenges presented in a more contemporary context.  This research provides recommendations for educators and parents to promote traditional sports games as an integral part of children’s educational and activity curricula. Thus, children can develop innovative resilience through activities that honor their ancestral heritage.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG2EF81DD

Abstract
Purpose. The study aimed to analyze the relationship between systolic and diastolic blood pressure and cardiovascular capacity in the elderly. Method. This research is an analytical observational study conducted with a cross-sectional approach. The sample involved 43 elderlies with characteristics: age 66.79 ± 4.24; weight 62.4 ± 11.66; and height 157.83 ± 6.77. The blood pressure measurements were carried out using a tensimeter, while the cardiovascular measurements were carried out using a 2-minute step test based on the senior fitness test procedure. Pearson’s correlation test was applied to determine the relationship between cardiorespiratory ability and blood pressure. Results. The Pearson’s data analysis test results showed a negative correlation between cardiorespiratory capacity and systolic blood pressure (r(41) = −0.516, p = < 0.001) and diastolic (r(41) = −0.442, p = 0.003). Conclusion. The higher the cardiorespiratory level in the elderly, the lower the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Thus, good cardio respiration is known to provide positive benefits in better blood pressure regulation in the elderly. Exercise may be needed so that the elderly obtains good cardiorespiratory fitness and, at the same time, normal blood pressure.
