Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of Neurofeedback(NF), Cranio-Sacral Therapy(CST) and Combine Therapy(CT) in middle aged women through their experiences after participating these therapies. The participants were 53 middle aged women who lived in S city, 17 in the NF group, 17 in the CST and 19 in the CT, for 10 weeks from October to December, 2007. The NF group had 30 sessions, the CST group had 10 sessions and the CT group had 30 sessions of NF training after 10 sessions of CST. The data was collected from daily chart by self reporting their experiences during sessions. Collected data was analyzed by content analysis. From raw data, 37 items of NF, 91 items of CST and 110 items of CT were extracted in the content analysis. Similar items were gathered to 22 attributes of NF, 63 of CST and 68 of CT. These attributes were categorized into 9 higher attributes. The dominant attributes of NF were doziness during the training, mental comfort, lightening of physical and mental condition. Mental and physical comfort, improvement of sleep, healthy condition, crying were the dominant of CST. Also mental and physical comfort, lightening of physical condition, improvement of sleep, tear were the dominant of CT. According to the results of this study NF, CST and CT were very effective on physical and psychological relaxation. Therefore it is recommended that these NF, CST and CT be used as a complementary and alternative medicine(CAM) in middle aged women.

본 연구의 목적은 중년여성이 뉴로피드백(NF) 또는 두개천골요법(CST) 및 병용요법(CT:NF+CST)을 받고난 후 경험한 효과를 확인하고자 하는 것이다. 연구참여자는 S시 M동에 거주하는 중년여성으로서 NF군 17명, CST군 17명, CT군 19명, 총 53명이었다. 2007년 10월 8일부터 12월 14일까지 10주 동안 NF 30회, CST 10회, CT는 NF 30회의 훈련과 CST 10회가 시술되었고, 자료는 각각의 요법을 시술받는 동안 경험한 반응을 매일 일지에 자필로 작성하도록 하여 수집되었다. 자료분석은 연구참여자들이 기술한 자료를 토대로 의미 있는 내용을 찾아내어 내용분석 자료를 표출한 후, 각각의 자료를 속성의 유사점과 차이점을 확인하여 분류되었고, 분류된 속성들은 유사한 의미를 갖는 속성끼리 묶어 상위속성으로 범주화하여 명명하였다. 원 자료에서 효과를 진술한 내용 중 의미 있는 것을 뽑은 결과 NF 37개, CST 91개, CT 110개의 내용분석 자료가 표출되었고, 각각의 내용분석 자료를 유사한 것끼리 묶은 결과 NF 22개, CST 63개, CT 68개의 속성으로 분류되었다. 이 속성들은 9개의 상위속성 즉 불편감, 이완감, 신체증상 완화, 정신기능 향상, 신체적 이완, 심리적 이완, 시술자와의 교감, 카타르시스, 기(氣) 경험으로 범주화되었다. 요법 시 가장 많이 나타난 속성을 보면 NF 시에는 훈련 중 졸림, 마음이 편안해 짐, 몸이 가벼워짐, 마음이 가벼워짐 등 이었고, CST 시에는 마음이 편안해짐, 수면 향상, 건강해 짐, 울음, 몸이 편안해짐 등 이었으며, CT 시에는 마음이 편안해짐, 몸이 가벼워짐, 몸이 편안해짐, 수면 향상, 눈물 등 이었다. 결론적으로 NF 또는 CST 및 CT는 중년여성에게 신체적, 심리적 이완효과가 있으므로 중년여성의 심신이완을 위한 보완대체요법으로 활용할 수 있다.
