This study aims to comprehensively discuss the effect of non-pharmacological therapy on sleep disorders in adolescents, to improve sleep quality in this population. The method used in this study is a scoping review.

The articles obtained were sorted based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results of the study show that 10 articles were worthy of being reviewed regarding non-pharmacological interventions that can overcome sleep disorders, so that adolescent sleep quality can be improved. The conclusion is that several non-pharmacological therapies can improve sleep quality in adolescents, including exercise, relaxation, the use of herbs, and sleep hygiene.
