Wuqinxi Qigong, Dynamic Balance, Menopause, Women's Health ElderlyAbstract
This study investigates the impact of the Wuqinxi Qigong exercise on improving dynamic balance in menopausal women in Paokmotong village, East Lombok District. The research employed a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach. Twenty-four menopausal women participated in a 5-week Wuqinxi Qigong exercise program. Data collection involved experimental techniques in two phases: preparation and actual data collection. The study recommends incorporating BMI characteristics, extending the research duration, and modifying exercises to address balance disorders in the elderly. This research contributes valuable insights into the potential benefits of Qigong exercises for enhancing dynamic balance in menopausal women, highlighting the importance of tailored interventions for this demographic group
