Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mechanical massage on abdominal region on the reduction of abdominal fat in obese middle aged women. 10 middle aged obese women were participated in as subjects and executed 20~30min's mechanical abdominal massage for 4 weeks. At the beginning and end of 4 week's treatment, measured body composition, waist circumference and abdominal fat area and analyzed using SPSS. As a result, there were significant decrease in body weight(p= .003), % bodyfat(p= .018), waist circumference(p= .029), VFA(p= .007), SFA(p= .045) and TFA(p= .007) according to 4 weeks' treatment. Considering these results, it can be suggested that mechanical massage treatment on abdominal region in middle aged obese women be a effective method to reduce abdominal fat and furthermore to prevent and cure cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome caused by obesity.

본 연구는 중년여성들의 복부지방 과다 축적에 의해 발생하는 건강상의 문제들을 해결하는데 도움을 주고자 복부부위에 대한 기계적인 마사지 처치가 체성분, 허리둘레 및 복부지방면적의 감소에 미치는 효과를 규명하고자 하였다. WHR 0.85 이상의 복부비만 중년여성 10명을 대상으로 1회 20~30분씩 1일 2회, 주 5일, 4주간 총 40회의 기계적 마사지 처치를 시행하였으며, 처치 전·후 각 변인의 변화를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 체중, 체지방율, 허리둘레, 내장지방 면적, 복부 피하지방 면적, 복부 총지방 면적 등 모든 측정항목에서 유의한 감소가 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 고려할 때 복부부위에 대한 기계적 마사지 처치는 복부비만 중년여성들의 복부지방 감소에 도움을 주는 효율적인 방법이며, 나아가 복부지방으로 인해 야기되는 다양한 심혈관계 질환 및 대사성 질환의 예방과 치료에 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
