초록

근육의 긴장으로 인한 두경부 통증을 가진 노인을 대상으로 소루마사지 요법을 적용하여 두경부 통증에 미치는 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 광주광역시 노인건강센타에서 선정 기준에 적합한 65세 이상 노인에서 실험군 30명, 대조군 16명 총 46명을 대상으로 8주간 주 2회, 총 16회의 소루마사지요법을 30분간 실시하였다. 그 결과 두경부 통증이 남자와 여자 모두 실험 전, 후에 감소되었으며 이는 통계적으로 유의하였다. 남녀를 구분하지 않는 분석에서도 두경부 통증의 실험 전, 후 차이가 유의하였다. 소루마사지요법은 근육의 긴장으로 인한 노인의 두경부 통증의 감소에 유의한 결과를 보여 노인들의 건강유지 및 건강증진, 삶의 질을 향상시킬 수 있어 널리 적용할 수 있는 중재적 대체요법이라고 할 수 있겠다.

This study was aimed to analyse the effect of Soru massage therapy on pain of the head and neck of 46 seniors aged over 65. The therapy was given twice a week for eight weeks and a total of 16 sessions for 30 minutes. The results revealed that the pain average on the head and neck of the male and female subjects was statistically significant. For the test group who had a random test, the average of pain on the head and neck of the subjects was statistically significant. Based on the results, Soru massage therapy showed positive results for pain on the head and neck of elderly persons, which indicates that it can improve their health and quality of living. Therefore, this study is an arbitrary alternative therapy which can be applied for the elderly who have pain on the head and neck caused by muscular tension.
