Abstract

Purpose: Nurses often look for ways to help control pain and stress following surgery and diseases while MASSAGE therapy is considered a comprehensive procedure to help patients cope with their disease and lower their anxiety. This study was intended to investigate the effects of short - term myofascial trigger MASSAGE therapy to head, neck and shoulder areas on PHYSIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS and RELAXATION. Methods and Material: In this experimental study, the subjects were originally homogenized as for their age and sex and then assigned randomly into control and experimental groups. 40 subjects (half male and half female) with mean age of 21.5±1.8 (for males) and 20±1.4 (for females) participated in the study. For five minutes, their pulse, systolic and diastolic blood pressure as well as their conception of muscular tension and psychological status before and after the intervention were recorded. Results: After MASSAGE therapy of myofacial trigger points, considerable reduction in the heart rate (P<0.02) and diastolic blood pressure (P<0.01) were observed. Also, Significant improvement was observed in muscular tension and psychological status (P<0.01). Conclusion: It is concluded that in healthy subjects, MASSAGE therapy of MYOFASCIAL TRIGGER POINTS of head, neck and shoulder areas is effective in inducing more RELAXATION.
