As a result of brain disorders, it causes hemiplegia and hemiparesis. Many types of interventions are available for physical problems of hemiparesis, one of which is ROM therapy and Warm Water Compress. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of Range Of Motion (ROM) therapy and Warm Water Compress with the Orem Self Care theory approach to Increasing Muscle Strength in Non-Hemorrhagic Stroke Patients. The design in this study was a Quasy Experiment with Pretest t and Posttest . The sample size was 44 with a Simple Random Sampling technique with 22 intervention groups and 22 controls. The intervention group was given ROM Exercises and Warm Water Compresses. Analysis used the Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests to identify differences between the intervention and control groups with a significance level of a
