This study aims to determine the comparative effectiveness between home-based exercise and kinesiotape in lowering pain and disability in the elderly with knee osteoarthritis.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Methods: </em></strong><em>It was an experimental study with a randomized pre-test and post-test control group design. There were 30 participants divided into 2 groups: Group 1 with Kinesiotape and Group 2 with Home-Based Exercise. The intervention was given 3 times per week for 4 weeks. Disability was measured by WOMAC, and pain was measured by VAS.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Results: </em></strong><em>p-value for WOMAC and VAS scores before and after intervention is &lt;0.001 in kinesiotape and Home-Based exercise interventions, which states that there is a significant improvement in lowering disability.

Home-based exercise is more effective than Kinesiotape in lowering knee pain and disability in patients with genotype osteoarthritis.</em></p> 2025-05-20T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Keterapian Fisik https://jurnalketerapianfisik.com/index.php/jpt/article/view/456 Effect of Custom Foot Orthoses on Vertical Jump in Flat-Footed Basketball Players 2025-04-19T15:29:56+07:00 Atika Febri Anggriani atikaanggriani07@gmail.com Prasetyo Catur Utomo prasetyocatur@gmail.com <p><em><strong>Background</strong></em><em><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><strong>: </strong></span></em><em>Basketball is one of the most popular and widely enjoyed sports among Indonesians. Vertical jump is one of the elements that determines success in performing several of those techniques. The foot plays <span data-preserver-spaces="true">a vital role in supporting the body's weight during activities such as walking, standing, running, and jumping. The shape of the arcus pedis influences the biomechanics of the foot. A normal arch will assist in achieving maximum jumps. An abnormal pedal arch affects the outcome of jumps, resulting in suboptimal performance. The device can be provided for abnormal arch conditions, such as a custom foot orthosis. This study aims to determine the effect of custom foot orthoses on vertical jumps in flat-footed basketball players.</span></em></p> <p><em><strong>Methods</strong></em><em><span data-preserver-spaces="true"><strong>:</strong></span></em><em> One group pretest and posttest design method with population of 25 people and 23 respondents.

Sleep disruptions and pattern alterations are more common in the elderly. The physical well-being, mental clarity, and overall quality of life of the elderly can all be greatly impacted by these changes. The following are some of the main problems with the elderly's sleep quality.</em> <em>The objective of this research is to determine the effect of foot massage on quality sleep in the elderly. </em></p> <p><em><strong>Methods: </strong></em><em>Quasi-experimental research with pretest and posttest control group design approach. Participants were selected using a non-probability purposive sampling technique based on inclusion criteria related to age and sleep disturbances, with a total of 25 elderly individuals. Subjects were randomly divided into 2 groups. Group I receives the foot massage treatment and group II is the control group. This study measured the quality of sleep in the elderly. The research instrument used the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). </em></p> <p><em><strong>Results: </strong></em><em>The analysis includes 25 participants, divided into two groups. In Group 1, all 14 participants showed a decrease in sleep quality scores, which is statistically significant (p&lt;0.001). In group II, the change is not statistically significant (p=0.724), indicating that most participants did not experience substantial changes in sleep quality.</em></p> <p><em><strong>Conclusion: </strong></em><em>Foot massage is a non-pharmacological intervention demonstrated to enhance sleep quality among elderly individuals. The analysis indicates that foot massage significantly enhances blood circulation and muscle relaxation, contributing to improved sleep quality. This intervention shows potential as a practical and non-pharmacological method for managing sleep disturbances in the elderly.</em></p> 2025-05-27T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Keterapian Fisik https://jurnalketerapianfisik.com/index.php/jpt/article/view/367 Correlation Between Physical Activity and Musculoskeletal Disorders Among the Elderly 2025-05-23T08:27:01+07:00 Sabrina Fitri Nadiyah sabrinafitrin@gmail.com Riska Risty Wardhani riskaristyw.aisyiyahyia@gmail.com Luluk Rosida lulukrosida@gmail.com <p><strong><em>Background:</em></strong> <em>Engaging in physical activity helps prevent Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) in the elderly, which affect both soft and hard supporting tissues of the limbs. Low physical activity levels in older adults often lead to MSD complaints, especially in the lower back, knees, shoulders, and hands. This study aims to evaluate the correlation of physical activity in the incidence of MSDs among the elderly.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Method</em></strong><strong><em>s</em></strong><strong><em>:</em></strong> <em>This study employed analytical observational research with a cross-sectional design and purposive sampling technique. The participants consisted of 50 older adults aged 60 and above. The research utilized the Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) to assess physical activity, while musculoskeletal disorders were evaluated using the Nordic Body Map (NBM). Data analysis was performed using the Spearman rank statistical test, facilitated by SPSS version 23 software.</em></p> <p><strong><em>Results:</em></strong> <em>The findings showed a notable relationship between physical activity and the occurrence of musculoskeletal disorders in older adults, yielding a p-value of &lt;0.001 and a correlation coefficient of -0.474, indicating a moderate level of strength. This means that the lower a person's level of physical activity, the higher the degree of Musculoskeletal Disorder complaints.</em><strong><em> </em></strong></p> <p><strong><em>Conclusion: </em></strong><em>This study demonstrates a significant correlation between low levels of physical activity and the prevalence and severity of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among older adults at the Arum Sari Health Post. The findings emphasize the need to raise public awareness and investigate additional risk factors to enhance the prevention and management of MSDs in the elderly.</em></p> 2025-05-28T00:00:00+07:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Keterapian Fisik
