Sleep disturbance and fatigue are conditions that are most often experienced by pregnant women. As much as 97% of pregnant women in Indonesia will experience sleep disturbances at the age of pregnancy entering the third trimester. Some alternative therapies that can improve the quality of sleep for pregnant women are yoga, aromatherapy, massage, acupressure and reflection. The yoga movement contains a relaxing effect that can stabilize the emotions of pregnant women, while non-pharmacological therapies that can be used to overcome sleep difficulties experienced by pregnant women are aromatherapy, one of which is lavender aromatherapy. Lavender aromatherapy has sedative and anti-neurodepressive compounds that can provide a relaxing effect and can overcome sleep difficulties experienced by third trimester pregnant women. This study aims to determine the effect of prenatal yoga combined with lavender aromatherapy on the sleep quality of third trimester pregnant women.

This study used a quasi-experimental design that would directly measure changes in the sleep quality of respondents before and after being given treatment. The research was carried out at the East Denpasar Health Center I in September-October 2022. The sampling technique in this study was accidental sampling. The number of samples used in this study were 30 respondents who were divided into two groups, namely the treatment group and the control group.

From the results of the study it was found that most pregnant women were in the age range of 20-35 years, most pregnant women were included in the multigravida category and almost all pregnant women had never done prenatal yoga. There was a significant effect with p <0.05 from giving prenatal yoga combined with giving lavender aromatherapy to improving the sleep quality of third trimester pregnant women. It is hoped that every health worker can provide services in the form of giving prenatal yoga combined with giving lavender aromatherapy to overcome sleep disturbances that are often felt by pregnant women in the third trimester.
