The results of the training activities obtained that the average skill before being given training was 67.14 and the average skill after being given training was 89.07. There was a significant increase in skills (p value 0.001) in puskesmas nurses and health cadres in the Cimahi City area. It is recommended for cadres and nurses to apply acupressure massage skills in their area as a complementary therapy to overcome various symptoms and disorders caused by diseases experienced by the community.
