摘要
Background: Enuresis management necessitates both non-pharmacological and pharmacological approaches that are safe and effective. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of acupressure on the treatment of enuresis in children.Methods: A total of thirty-two children who suffered from enuresis were recruited and received acupressure was performed by a certified therapist.Results: There was a significant decrease in the frequency of enuresis in children after being given acupressure therapy compared to before acupressure therapy (p < 0.05).Conclusions: It was concluded that acupressure can reduce the frequency of enuresis in children. Acupressure may be an alternative treatment that is safe, inexpensive, and not invasive for enuresis, but further studies are required to confirm results.
