140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure of at least 90 mmHg. Hypertension can be
controlled with pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapy. One of the nonpharmacological management of acute hypertension pain is the application of elderly
hypertension gymnastics can reduce pain scale and blood pressure. This research
method uses a case study strategy. Researchers conducted an elderly hypertension
exercise application with 3 meetings, this exercise was carried out for 15-20 minutes.
The results obtained when the elderly hypertension exercise was carried out showed
that there was a decrease in the pain scale from 8 (0-10) BP 180/90mmHg on day 3 to
a pain scale of 3 (0-10) BP 120/80 mmHg. It can be concluded that there is a
significant influence of application of elderly hypertension gymnastics to acute pain
with hypertension.
