The Covid-19 pandemic has led people who were non-COVID-19 patient to avoid hospital admission and to seek help from alternative medicine. The aim of this report is to describe the management of chest pain at home using Su Jok therapy. Case report: A male 47 of years old complained of chest pain with difficulty breathing and asked for help from the researcher who was a nurse as well as Su Jok therapist. His sclera profile was recorded for analysis (sclerology analysis). Su Jok therapy was applied directly by the researcher on daily basis. Researcher also monitored his condition progress through checking pain point on his hands and also from his sclera profile. After two weeks, the symptoms subsided and the eye’s profile of sclera shows healing progress. Conclusion: The case study shows that Su Jok therapy may become an alternative therapy for managing chest pain.
