본 연구는 지역사회 노인을 대상으로 아로마테라피 발마사지를 중재하여 만성통증과 수면에 미치는 효과를 규명하기 위한 실험연구이다. 대상자는 총 43명으로 실험군 22명, 대조군 21명이었다. 실험군에게 적용한 에센셜오일의 구성은 케모마일 로만, 라벤더, 마조람 스위트, 오렌지 스위트를 캐리어 오일인 호호바오일 100ml에 2%로 희석한 것으로 하였다. 중재는 실험군에게 2주 동안 주당 3회, 1회 10분, 총 6회 시행하였다. 자료분석은 SPSS/WIN 21.0을 이용하여 $x^2$-test, independent t-test로 분석하였다. 본 연구결과 실험군은 대조군보다 만성통증은 실험군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 감소(t=-17.527, p=.000)가 있었고, 수면의 질은 실험군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 향상(t=38.125, p=.000)되었으며, 수면 중 소변횟수도 실험군에서 통계적으로 유의하게 감소(t=-10.088, p=.000)가 있었다. 따라서 아로마테라피 발마사지는 약물복용 없이 지역사회 노인의 만성통증 완화와 수면이 향상되어 건강관리와 증진을 위한 유용한 중재방법으로 활용 가능할 것으로 생각된다.
