ABSTRACT:

As is known, massage is a non-pharmacological method that can be beneficial for muscle strength and flexibility. Static positions in playing online games with a long duration play a role in causing neck disorders. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of massage and stretching therapy on healing neck injuries in online game players. This study used a pre-experimental design with one group posttest-pretest design. The population in this study was students who visited Burjo Pamungkas who played online games (3-5 hours) a day. The study sample was 20 people determined by purposive sampling. The data collected were pain scale data with Numeric Rating Scale and ROM measured by Goniometer, both before and after a combination treatment of massage and stretching for 40 minutes. . The analysis technique used is Wilcoxon Signed Rank with a signification level of 5%. The results of this study showed that the combination treatment of massage and stretching can reduce pain scale and increase neck Range of Motion (ROM) significantly (p < 0.05). From the calculation of the effectiveness of the treatment, it was found that the effectiveness of reducing the pain scale by 57% and the effectiveness of increasing ROM by an average of 24.01%.
