Masase Olahraga sebagai Upaya Pemeliharaan Kesehatan Peserta pada Kegiatan Konferensi Nasional KPPTI

Abstract

The goal of this Community Service Program (PKM) is to provide practical interventions through a direct-service, applied approach that integrates sports massage services and health maintenance education. Implementation methods include preparation and coordination, provision of a massage team and equipment, individualized sports massage services, simple education on health maintenance and good posture, and evaluation through observation and participant feedback. Results showed that participants experienced reduced muscle tension and fatigue, increased comfort, relaxation, and readiness to continue the series of activities at the KPPTI national conference. The health education provided also received a positive response and encouraged participants to apply the information gained in their daily activities. This activity has the potential to be developed as a routine health mentoring program for other scientific or professional activities with a more comprehensive scope of services and evaluation methods.
