Abstract : Cute Respiratory Infections (ARI) begin with heat accompanied by heat accompanied by one or more symptoms, throat, runny nose, dry or phlegm cough. The prevalence of ARI is calculated in the last 1 month, the five provinces with the highest ARI are East Nusa Tenggara (41.7%), Papua (31.1%), Aceh (30.0%), West Nusa Tenggara (28.3%), and East Java (28.3%). In Riskesdas 2007, East Nusa Tenggara was also the highest province with ARI. The prevalence period of ISPA in Indonesia according to Riskesdas 2013 as much as (25.0%) is not much different from 2007 as much (25.5%) (Riskesdas, 2013). This study aims to determine the effect of relaxation therapy on reducing maternal anxiety levels in children with ARI at Birem Bayeun Community Health Center. The study design was a quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest. This study uses primary data that is processed in univariate and bivariate. Data is presented in the form of frequency distribution tables, cross tables, and narratives. The instrument used in this study is a questionnaire developed based on research variables. The number of samples in this study was 15 respondents with probability sampling techniques (purposive sampling). The results of this study indicate that of the 15 respondents before being given relaxation therapy the majority experienced severe anxiety as many as 10 respondents (66.7%) and after being given relaxation therapy the majority did not experience anxiety as much as 7 respondents (46.7% ). The results of this study also concluded that there was an effect of relaxation therapy on reducing maternal anxiety levels in children with ARI at Birem Bayeun Health Center with a p-value of 0.000. Researchers suggest that respondents add insight and knowledge about child care with ARI so that mothers can care for children with ARI and overcome anxiety.
