Purpose: This research aims to identify the physio-psychological effects of applying a qi massage program as an independent complementary intervention for employees with hypertension in a workplace.
Methods: A quasi-experimental design was employed using a nonequivalent control group with pre- and post-tests. The study was performed from August 18 to October 10, 2008 on hypertensive employees being treated with a qi massage program in a company. The control group was recruited first to prevent treatment diffusion. The experimental group was subsequently recruited and received individual treatment for 30 minutes. Collected data was analyzed using SPSS16.0 version. ¥ö2-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Wilcoxon signed ranks test, Fisher¡¯s exact test and paired t-test were implemented in order to examine the effects of individual intervention on patients who are treated with the qi massage program.
Results: The experimental group showed a greater improvement in systolic blood pressure, diastolic pressure, stress, and quality of life than did the control group.
Conclusion: A qi massage program may be implemented as a complementary intervention to effectively treat hypertensive persons.
