Abstract

Nowadays, supersonic massage and meridian massage were well known for their effectiveness for the circulation of blood. The purpose of this study was to prove the improvement and the effect of supersonic waves and meridian massage on the circulation of blood and the change of body heat, as concentrated care of trapezius and erector spine was tried, focused on males and females in their 20s, applying supersonic waves and meridian massage to the cervical vertebral and the spine. Generally, skin care for the back is broadly performed in esthetic salons. By means of meridian massage by hands and supersonic waves by machine for the back, a comparative study on the effect on the circulation of blood and the change of body heatwas performed to males and females in their 20s. The objectives were 100 students, who lived in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, in department of cosmetology in Y University. They visited in esthetic salon everyday so meridian massage and supersonic massage were Performed for 20 min. for each. The results of the study were as below. The objectives were divided into the three groups, who got meridian massage, who got supersonic massage by machine, who got both massage for comparison. In order to research the effect of massage, the circulation of blood and the change of body heat before and after massage were observed. The study was intent on finding out the correlation between both methods of massage and their effects, individually operating general meridian massage or massages by machine like supersonic massage and offering basic information to give various and effective services in esthetic site through the study. Each massage had a significant difference between before and after massage. It was compared and studied by the circulation of blood, the change of body heat, and SPIR-400, DITI. Comparing a difference of average from the circulation of blood and the change of body heat, supersonic massage recorded +1℃and meridian massage showed + 2℃ in the change of body heat after operating. From two types of massage, meridian massage was more effective on the change of body heat than supersonic massage. From this, it could be said that meridian massage for the back would be effective, when just one type of massage from meridian massage and supersonic massage were selected, as it was understand by SPIR-400, DITI. A study on various programs for the back should be continued based on this study.
