- Abstract
Adolescence is a period marked by physical, emotional and psychological changes called puberty. One sign of puberty is the occurrence of menstruation, a disorder that arises in the menstrual cycle, namely dysmenorrhea. According to Anwar1, the prevalence of dysmenorrhea in Indonesia is 60-70%. Handling of dysmenorrhea can be overcome by the SEFT (Spiritual Emotional Freedom Technique) method, a blend of the science of Acupuncture and Psychology that is enhanced with a Spiritual touch. This research was a quasi-experimental research design with one group pre-post-test method. The sample was determined by purposive sampling. The research was conducted by providing training to female students, then practiced on their own. The sample was taken from a total population of 82 people, data collection was carried out by assessment and observation using an observation sheet. The results revealed that descriptively the average pain scale had a higher reduction in the intervention group than that in the control group. The results of the statistical test showed that in the intervention group, the p-value of 0,000 was obtained, there was a difference in the mean score of the pain before and after the intervention of the SEFT Method in the intervention group. In the control group, the p-value was 0.003 showing that there was a difference in the mean score of the pain at the first measurement and the second measurement in the control group. For the mean difference in the two groups, the pvalue was 0.000 revealing that there was a difference in the mean score of the pain in the intervention group after being given the treatment of the SEFT method different from the mean score of pain in the control group that was not treated with the SEFT method. Socialization is needed for all students about the benefits of the SEFT method in reducing dysmenorrhea during menstruation.
