Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects on the bio signal of brain waves and pulse waves using acupressure thermal bed combined with acupressure and thermal therapy. Forty healthy adults were divided into 20 experimental groups using combinatorial stimulation beds and 20 non-irritating controls. As a result of the experiment, the EEG was significantly increased in the delta wave and theta wave in the experimental group, and the alpha wave and beta wave decreased significantly. The pulse wave increased the parasympathetic activity index in the experimental group and the heart rate decreased. There was no difference in the control group. This change in EEG can be seen as a combination stimulation bed having a sleep-inducing effect, and a change in pulse wave can seen as having a relaxing effect. This study is expected to be used as basic data for the development of various combination stimulators and functional bed products.

본 연구에서는 지압과 온열이 조합된 지압온열침대를 사용하여 뇌파와 맥파의 생체신호에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 건강한 성인 40명을 대상으로 조합자극침대를 사용하는 실험군 20명과 무자극의 대조군 20명으로 나누었다. 실험 결과, 뇌파는 실험군에서 델타파와 세타파에서 유의미하게 증가하였고 알파파와 베타파는 유의미하게 감소하였다. 맥파는 실험군에서 부교감신경활성지표가 증가하였으며 심박은 감소하였다. 대조군에서는 아무런 차이가 없었다. 이러한 뇌파의 변화는 조합자극침대가 수면유도의 효과를 주는 것으로 볼 수 있으며 맥파의 변화는 이완의 효과가 나타났다고 할 수 있다. 이러한 연구는 다양한 조합자극기기와 기능성 침대 제품개발에 기초 데이터로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
