The design used in the study is pre test and post test without control group. The sample of this study were 20 respondents.The sample in this study using purposive sampling.Analysis of the data used to determine the effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation techniques was using Paired t-test. Results.The level of fatigue patients before given the action that is mild fatigue as much as 4 respondents (20%), moderate as much as 6 respondents (30%) and severe as much as 10 respondents (50%). Fatigue levels after the patient given the action that is not fatigue as much as 4 respondents (20%), mild as much as 6 respondents (30%) and moderate as much as 10 respondents (50%). There is significant difference between the mean fatigue level before and after given progressive muscle relaxation technique (p < 0.000). Conclusion.
