자가 미세전류 마사지가 지연성 근통증과 좌전굴에 미치는 영향

The purpose of present study is to find the influence of self-microcurrent massage on DOMS and Sit & Reach. A quasi-experimental study employing a repeated measure( rest-pretest-posttest) was designed to one-group. Total 21 college students (F=11, M=10) aged 19.18 (SD 0.9) participated in this study. The da ta process of this study calculated as mean (M) of all measured vlaue and used One-way repeated measure ANOVA (SPSS). The significant level of hypothesis verificationis set-up as α=.05. As results, there was a significant difference on measures of DOMS at rest, self-microcurernt massage before, and self-microcurrent massage after (mean of 0-3.9-2.69), F (2.40)=226.802, p<.0005, partial η2=.91. The tests of within-subject contrasts showed a significant quadratic trend [F(1, 20)=199.110, p<.0005]. Also, the analysis showed that there is a significant difference on measures of Sit & Reach a rtest, self-microcurrent massage before, and self-microcurrent massage after (22.73-20.70-22.81), F (2.40)=16.483, p<.0005, partial η2=.45. A significant quadratic trend was found in this analysis [F(1, 20)=34.611, p<.0005]. In conclusions, the findings indicate that self-microcurrent massage on people with DOMS is beneficial tor educe the level of DOMS and to increase the measure of Sit & Reach. Nevertheless, more research is reqiured to verify pure effects of microcurren t massage on reduced levels of DOMS and increase in flexibility.
