الوصف: Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of acupressure points L14 and SP6 in reducing the intensity of pain during the first stage of labor at PMB Meita in Sidoarjo. Recognizing the physiological and psychological impacts of labor pain on both mothers and infants, the research seeks to assess the potential of acupressure as a non-pharmacological intervention to alleviate labor pain and enhance maternal well-being during childbirth. Methods: This research adopts a Quasi Experimental Design with a One Group Pre-Post Test Design approach. The study population comprises maternity mothers receiving prenatal care at PMB Meita in Sidoarjo. Accidental sampling is utilized to select a sample of 30 respondents. Data collection involves observing acupressure treatments using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) to measure pain intensity. Univariate analysis, employing frequency distribution, and bivariate analysis, utilizing paired t-test, are conducted to analyze the data. Results and Discussion: The findings indicate that the mean labor pain intensity before administering acupressure points SP6 and L14 was 6.48, which decreased to 3.84 after acupressure treatment. The bivariate analysis demonstrates a significant effect of the SP6 and L14 acupressure technique on reducing labor pain during the active phase I of labor at PMB Meita in Sidoarjo (p–value 0.0001 <0.05), with a mean decrease of 2.64. These results suggest that acupressure therapy holds promise as a complementary intervention for managing labor pain and enhancing maternal comfort during childbirth. Implications of the Research: The research outcomes have implications for midwifery care and maternal health practices, particularly in the context of promoting non-pharmacological pain management strategies during labor. By demonstrating the effectiveness of acupressure in reducing labor pain intensity, the study highlights the importance of integrating complementary therapies into maternity care protocols to improve maternal experiences ...
