영문 초록

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of Bowen therapy on low back pain in the present day. For this, a total of 30 women in their 30-40s who received therapy from an aesthetic salon were divided into a Bowen Therapy group and relaxation group. The two groups were compared before therapy and after the receiving of therapy once, twice and 3 times, using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Likert scale. The study results found the following: First, according to analysis of the severity of pain felt by the respondents by general characteristics, those in their 40s had greater pain than those in their 30s. In addition, the severity of pain felt by the respondents was greater when they had prior treatment in a hospital. Second, the severity of pain felt by the respondents between the Bowen therapy group and relaxation group measured with the VAS diminished over time compared to the level before therapy. The difference in the severity of pain by time of therapy given significantly decreased. However, no difference was found between the two groups. In the Bowen therapy group measured using the VAS, the severity of pain decreased in areas including impact on daily living, pain at night, inconvenience in the use of lower back, inconvenience in walking and inconvenience at work after therapy was received three times. Third, a difference in the severity of low back pain measured using a Likert scale before and after therapy significantly decreased in both the Bowen therapy and relaxation groups and no difference was observed in terms of therapy method.
