In general, adolescents’ stress increases as they advance in grade and this stress can also have a significant influence on society as well as on the students. Under these circumstances, this study attempted to investigate the effects of head and neck massage using aromatic oil on their attention and stress. For this, 20 students having no ENT disease were chosen among high-school students aged 18 and 19 from alternative boarding schools, and the experiment was performed 10 times in total (twice a week, 5 weeks) from June 1 to July 5. Specifically, aromatic oil was obtained by blending lavender, chamomile and eucalyptus in jojoba oil in a 2:2:1 ratio. Then, a 10-minute massage was given on the head and neck using this oil. The students were relaxed for about 5 minutes before and after the experiment, and then their pulse wave was measured. The state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) survey on physical stress, academic stress and psychological stress was performed three times in total (before the massage, after the 5th massage, after the 10th massage). In addition, the Frankfurt attention inventory (FAIR) was utilized twice (before the massage, after the 10th massage). Pulse waves and stress indexes were measured three times (before the massage, after the 5th massage, after the 10th massage) using uBIO MACPA. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and the results found the following: No significant effects were found in pulse wave index, sympathetic nerve index and parasympathetic nerve index changes. However, these indexes did not exceed standard thresholds. The cumulative stress index decreased from 37.50 (before the massage) to 29.20 (after the 10th massage). According to the FAIR, as well, the results increased after the 10th massage from the status before the massage. This study has confirmed that head and neck massage using aromatic oil has a positive effect on the reduction of stress and improvement of attention in high-school students from alternative schools. It is anticipated that the study results would be available as basic data for future studies on the reduction of stress through massage.

处于青少年期的学生随着年级的升高，压力也会随之增加。青少年承受的压力会对当下以及日后的整体社会产生重 要的影响。因此本论文试图了解利用精油进行的头颈部按摩对青少年注意力和压力产生的影响。实验对象为寄 宿学校20名没有耳鼻喉科疾病的18~19岁高中生，实验期限为6月1日至7月5日历时5周，实验总次数为每周2次共 计10次。实验方式为使用薰衣草、甘菊花、蓝桉以2:2:1配比混合荷荷巴油制成的精油，在校内咨询室进行10分钟 头颈部按摩。在实验前后休息5分钟左右后，测量了脉搏。利用测量情绪的工具，分别在实验前、5次实验后、10次试 验后进行了3次关于身体压力、学业压力、心理压力的问题调查，而在实验前及10次实验后进行了2次FAIR注意力检 查。另外，利用UBIO脉搏测量仪，分别在实验前、5次实验后、10次试验后测量了3次脉搏和压力指数。利用SPSS 23.0进行调查问卷分析以及确认测量结果，得出如下结论。在脉搏指数、交感神经指数、副交感神经指数方面 虽然没有发现显著的效果，但其指数未超过标准范围。累计压力指数从实验前的37.50减少为10次实验后的 29.20，经10次试验后的FAIR注意力指数也比实验前提高了。经实验确认，利用精油进行的头颈部按摩对高中 生缓解压力以及提高注意力有着显著的效果。期待本研究成果成为日后按摩缓解压力研究领域的重要参考资 料。
