Pendahuluan: Lansia mulai mengalami penurunan fungsi salah satunya pada sistem peredaran darah. Penurunan elastisitas dinding pembuluh darah dapat meyebabkan peningkatan tekanan darah. Salah satu upaya penanganan untuk menurunkan tekanan darah adalah terapi relaksasi otot progresif. Terapi ini dapat memunculkan respon relaksasi yang dapat merangsang aktivitas saraf simpatis dan parasimpatis sehingga terjadi penurunan tekanan darah pada lanjut usia.Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian teknik relaksasi otot progresif terhadap tekanan darah pada lansia di Wisma Sakura UPT PSTW Jember. Metode: Desain penelitian ini menggunakan Quasi eksperimental without control dengan pendekatan pre-post test one group design. Teknik sampling yang digunakan adalah total sampling sebanyak 16 responden. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan sphygmomanometer dan lembar observasi. Analisis bivariat menggunakan uji T-Test Dependen jika data berdistribusi normal, dan uji Wilcoxon jika tidak berdistribusi normal. Hasil: Berdasarkan hasil uji T-Test dependen sebelum dan sesudah dilakukan intervensi yaitu 0,000 (p<0,005) dan 0,002 (p<0,005). Kesimpulan: terdapat pengaruh pemberian relaksasi otot progresif terhadap tekanan darah sistolik dan diastolik di Wisma Sakura UPT PSTW Jember

Productive age is a risk group that is prone to hypertension and hypertension increases with age. Management of hypertension plays a role in maintaining the stability of the patient's medical condition and slowing the occurrence of complications. However, the implementation of the hypertension disease management program has not been carried out optimally. This research was carried out quantitatively, with a quasi-experimental type of research using one-group pretest-posttest design approach. Activities were carried out in four stages, namely situation analysis, plan formulation, implementation, and monitoring evaluation. Evaluation of systolic and diastolic blood pressure and knowledge of participants was done before and after the program. The intervention results showed that there were significant differences in systolic, diastolic blood pressure, and public knowledge before and after the program (p<0.005). Community based hypertension management programs have proven to be effective in increasing the knowledge and clinical conditions of people with hypertension. Therefore, to increase knowledge, attitudes, and skills to control hypertension and support are needed by health workers, cadres and families.
