Introduction: Hypertension was one of degenerative diseases commonly in elderly. Hypertension is a problem in elderly because could be a risk factor for stroke, heart failure, and coronary diseases. Athelosclerosis is one of coronary diseases caused by hypertension. The combination between walking and deep breathing technique effectively to decrease blood pressure levels and increase ankle brachial index.Method: This research used quasi experimental design. Respondent in this research is 62 people (31 people intervention group and 31 control group). Respondent selected by purposive sampling. The independent variable was JASE-PIRELAK and the dependent variable was blood pressure and ankle-brachial index. The instrument was an observational sheet. Data analysis used Independent T-test and Mann-Whitney Test.Results: The results showed that there was influence JASE-PIRELAK to decrease systolic blood pressure in the intervention group (p=0,000). In otherwise no influence in control group (p=0,850). As influence as to increase ankle-brachial index in intervention group (p=0,000) and control group (p=0,014).Discussion: It can be concluded that in JASE-PIRELAK had a influence to decrease blood pressure and increase ankle-brachial index in elderly hypertension. The future research are expected to do with many more samples and increase the time of the research, and capable control the consumption of sodium for optimal result.
