Acupressure is one of physiotherapy by putting pressure and stimulating acupuncture points (acu points) on the body which aims to stimulate or stimula therapeutic points using the fingers. Baihui point (GV 20) is located on the head, the point of intersection of the median line of the head and the line connecting the apex of the left and right auricles. This point is innervation of the ophthalmic branch n. trigeminal and branch n. occipital. This study was to determine the effect of giving acupressure with 2 fingers tap at the Baihui point on autistic toddlers who do therapy at BundaQu Holistic Care & SPA. This study applied a combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches. A quantitative approach is applied to determine whether there is a correlation or influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable. this study applied a Single Case Experimental Design with the A-B-Follow up paradigm. Based on statistical tests, the results obtained p value of 0.00 in autistic toddlers who received treatment. It means that there is an effect of pressurizing two fingers 10 times with an interval of 12 times per day on the Baihui point (GV 20). Furthermore, it can also have an effect on the ability of social interaction in the form of eye contact, mastery of emotional control and a decrease in repetitive behavior in toddlers with autism symptoms. In this case, it is necessary to have the parent’s active role, support willingness, motivation and patience in carrying out routine activities.

Postpartum treatments have been used by local women in Indonesia for some time now. One commonly used postpartum treatment is the consumption of a traditional herbal medicine called PHM-1 during the first 40 days after childbirth. In addition, a second medicine known as PHM-2 is taken for days 41-80. However, sufficient scientific evidence about the benefits of this postpartum herbal medicine does not exist. In this study, the antibacterial abilities of PHM-1 and PHM-2 therefore was evaluated and showed positive potential for both. Low IC50 values were obtained against pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Rhodopseudomonas palustris, Ralstonia pickettii, and Staphylococcus epidermidis and compared with chloramphenicol as a positive control. The antibacterial activity of both PHM-1 and PHM-2 against R. pickettii had the highest inhibitory activity as evidenced by the lowest IC50 values of 11.16 and 6.26 μg/ml, respectively. Furthermore, an in vivo acute toxicity test showed that PHM-1 produced a low LD50 value of 3.28 g/kg BW for both of male and female mice. These results support the use of both PHM-1 and PHM-2 as antibacterial treatments for postpartum women.
Exclusive breastfeeding means breastfeeding without food and drink for babies aged 0-6 months. Data obtained from the 2010 IDHS stated that impaired growth and development of toddlers in Indonesia was caused by mothers who were disobedient in giving exclusive breastfeeding to their babies. The aim of the study was to analyze exclusive breastfeeding with a DDTK assessment in children aged 6 months to 2 years at the Orchid Posyandu, Peterongan District, Jombang Regency in 2020. The research design used is an analytical method with an approachcross sectional, the samples taken were some mothers who had toddlers aged 6 months to 2 years at the Orchid Posyandu, Peterongan District, Jombang Regency in 2020. Those who met the sample criteria byNonprobability Sampling, techniqueSimpel Random Sampling. The number of samples in this study were 48 respondents. The data obtained is tabulated and grouped to determine the relationship between the two variables. After that the data is entered into the testSPSS by analysisMann Whitney U with a significance level of p <0.05. the results of the study obtained a significance value of 0.001, so a p value <0.05, H was obtained1 accepted means that there is a relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and DDTK assessment in children aged 6 months to 2 years. Based on the results of this study, it is hoped that all health workers in the Peterongan District will further improve their performance through counseling activities and data collection on exclusive breastfeeding to achieve the desired toddler development.
