| Summary: | Forests can provide benefits for humans, namely as a healing service. One form of utilization of health services is healing forest tours. The Forest Park Ir. H. Djuanda Bandung plans to develop the management of healing forest tourism, so it is necessary to identify suitable locations for healing forest activities. The purposes of this research are 1) to analyze the suitability of the location/site and path of forest tourism activities for health therapy (healing forest) in Forest Park Djuanda, 2) to determine changes in individual health responses after activities in forest tourism for health therapy (healing forest), 3) Determine recommendations for the management of forest tourism development for health therapy (healing forest) in Forest Park Djuanda. Determining the location of the research was carried out using remote sensing by considering the characteristics of the canopy density, slope, area blocks in Forest Park Djuanda. Measurement of physical characteristics in more detail using drone aerial photographs with parameters of slope, canopy density, air temperature, air humidity, noise, light intensity, air speed and Negative Air Ion (NAI). There are seven measurement site points in the field, then they are compared with the ideal physical characteristic values according to SNI. Health responses (blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels, physical stress, mental stress, and stress scores) were measured for 35 respondents before and after doing forest healing activities. Data remote sensing were analyzed using a Geographic Information System (GIS), and testing the hypothesis of the effect of health responses with comparative statistical tests. The results showed that there was a suitable research area that was 4.7 ha in area. Based on physical characteristics, the development of forest tourism for health therapy (healing forest) healing activities can be selected in the morning. There is a significant change in each health response towards normal (sig <0.05). Based on the assessment and indicators of SNI for forest tourism for health therapy, the research location only fulfilled 77% of all indicators, so that management development on indicators that were lacking, namely noise, thermal, accessibility, facilities, scenic beauty and physical facilities, increased human resources and types activity.
