Abstract

The present study investigated the relaxation effects of shoulder massages by machine on EEG power spectrum as shoulder massages could reduce stress and had good effects on people's bodies. The study also compared the EEG power spectrum both before and after the shoulder massages by machine. The samples included five healthy participants aged 30–50 years. All participants received the shoulder massages by machine for 30 minutes. The power spectrum were individually measured with the lightweight electroencephalogram (EEG). The measurement results were analyzed in order to calculate means and standard deviations as well as compared by using the paired t-test. After the experiment, the means of the alpha band was significantly changed at the significance level of 0.05 (p = 0.01). The means of the delta, theta, and beta bands were not significantly changed at the significance level of 0.05. Therefore, the shoulder massage by machine might be significantly relax for the people's bodies.

肩部按摩的脑电图研究

由于肩部按摩可以减轻压力，对人的身体有良好的影响，本研究在脑电功率谱上研究了机器肩部按摩的放松效果。该研究还比较了肩部按摩前后的脑电图功率谱。样本包括五名年龄在30-50岁之间的健康参与者。所有参与者都接受了30分钟的肩部按摩。功率谱分别用轻量脑电图(EEG)测量。对测量结果进行分析，以计算平均值和标准差，并使用配对t检验进行比较。实验结束后，alpha波段均值变化显著，显著水平为0.05 (p = 0.01)。delta、theta和beta波段的均值在0.05的显著性水平上无显著变化。因此，机器肩部按摩对人的身体有明显的放松作用。
