Back pain is a musculoskeletal disease in the back. It is caused by a lack of exercise time and poor sleep as more time spent sitting and living. Low back pain can cause serious complications if ignored. Therefore, this paper is to investigate the effect of acupressure and stretching on the improvement of low back pain patients. The subjects of this study were 60 subjects who visited the orthopedic outpatient clinic of a general hospital in the Chungnam area. Data collection and experiments were conducted from July 1 to November 31, 2024. Acupressure and stretching were done five times a week for three weeks. The results of this paper are as follows. Firstly, alcohol drinking was significantly higher in the experimental group at 64.5%, compared to 37.9% in the control group(X2=3.74, p=0.03). Secondly, the frequency of back pain was significantly higher in 32.3% of the experimental group than in 6.9% of the control group at least 5 times a week(X2=3.17, p=0.00). Thirdly, the previous pain management was 80.6% in the experimental group, significantly higher than 44.8% in the control group (X2=2.85, p=0.00). Therefore, low back pain can be prevented only by continuously stretching and acupressure. Measures should be developed to continue stretching and acupressure to prevent back pain in the future.
