Musculoskeletal function problems often occur in the elderly; they can cause repeated trauma to the back (low back pain), which can cause the elderly to often feel chronic or acute pain in the back.

Then given back massage therapy intervention for 8 meetings 2 times a week for 4 weeks. An assessment was carried out with a numeric rating scale observation sheet. Result: The results of the nursing evaluation of the five patients after being given back massage therapy showed a decreased pain scale.
