| Research Abstract |
This was a fundamental study aimed at developing a model for establishing a face massage technique. Five-minute and 10-minute face massages were devised, the effects of which were analytically compared using physiological and psychological indicators. The results indicated that massages of both durations achieve a significant increase in core body temperature as well as a significant decrease in the scores for 3 POMS items, including "fatigue" and "depression." With the 10-minute face massage but not the 5-minute massage, there was a significant decrease observed in the score for "anxiety-tension" and a significant increase observed in the score for SE. These results suggest that a face massage maintains hemodynamic stability and imparts a relaxing and/or refreshing feeling, but that a 10-minute face massage is more effective than a 5-minute face massage.
