Abstract

Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) merupakan nyeri otot yang sering terjadi setelah 24 hingga 48 jam setelah olahraga. Berbagai pendekatan telah dilakukan untuk menurunkan kejadian DOMS, salah satunya masase dan recovery aktif. Namun manfaat keduanya masih terbatas pada kelompok atlet profesional. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai efek kombinasi masase dan recovery aktif untuk menurunkan gejala DOMS pada pemula. Penelitian kuasi-eksperimental dilakukan pada pada 35 mahasiswa (12 laki-laki dan 23 perempuan; usia 18 – 20 tahun) yang dibagi dalam dua kelompok (kelompok masase+recovery aktif dan kontrol. Terdapat penurunan nyeri yang signifikan antara sebelum dan sesudah eksperimen pada kelompok intervensi, sedangkan pada kelompok kontrol didapatkan peningkatan nilai nyeri pasca latihan. Kombinasi masase dan recovery aktif memiliki efek penurunan nyeri akibat DOMS pada kelompok latihan pemula. Delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) merupakan nyeri otot yang umumnya muncul 24–48 jam setelah melakukan aktivitas fisik atau latihan yang tidak biasa dilakukan, terutama pada individu yang tidak terbiasa melakukan latihan beban. Berbagai strategi pemulihan telah digunakan untuk mengurangi gejala DOMS, termasuk masase dan pemulihan aktif (active recovery). Namun, bukti mengenai efektivitas kombinasi kedua intervensi tersebut dalam mengurangi gejala DOMS pada mahasiswa tidak terlatih masih terbatas.
