Outline of Final Research Achievements |
40 healthy women were hand bathed at 40 ° C for 10 minutes. The shoulder blood flow rate, hand - to - facial skin temperature, deep abdominal temperature, autonomic nervous activity, subjectivity were compared between hand bath group and no hand bath group. As a result, the bath did not have a significant difference on shoulder blood flow and deep temperature. Skin temperature rise of the arm continued for about 50 minutes.Hand bath raises heart rate and temporarily reduces parasympathetic nervous activity. Bathing can provide a subjective feeling of comfort.
