This study attempted to compare differences in breast augmentation, using herb ball therapy, one of traditional Thai therapeutic treatments as a nonsurgical method. For this, a total of 36 women in their 20-40s were collected from social media and online communities, and a questionnaire survey was performed against them to examine demographic characteristics and satisfaction and perception of their breast. Specifically, after measuring chest circumference, inter-nipple distance, collarbone-right nipple distance and collarbone-left nipple distance, the therapy was given, and breast satisfaction was examined. This experiment was performed once a week (3 times in total) against three different groups: a group of the massage pushing breast muscles into the nipples by creating a space in the back of breast after pectoralis fascia massage; a herb ball group in which breast muscles and blood are pushed into nipples, using heated herb balls by creating a space in the back of breast after temporal pectoralis fascia massage; control group (no treatment was given). The collected data were analyzed by SPSS 25.0. To examine breast augmentation effects, repeated measures two-way ANOVA was conducted, and the results found the followings: In terms of interactions, a statistical significance was found at each measurement by group (F(6, 99)=30.307, p<.001). In other words, all three groups revealed changes in breast circumference after each therapy. In particular, the herb ball group was relatively greater than the massage and control groups in terms of breast circumference improvements.

本研究利用非手术方法泰国传统疗法之一的温疗法—香草球疗法，比较分析了不同被调组之间丰胸效果的差异。本研究通过社交媒体、论坛公告的方式，招募了20多岁和40多岁的女性，并将36位女性为研究对象，采用问卷的方式，调查了人口统计学特点和本人胸部满意度、认知度，测量了胸围、乳头间距、锁骨到右侧、左侧乳头的长度以及按摩后胸部满意度等，并以每周1次的频率，进行了3次实验。被调者分为三组，一组是接受用手进行大胸肌的筋膜按摩，使乳房背面产生空间，使乳房周围的肌肉向乳头部位聚集的按摩组；二组是接受用手暂时松缓大胸肌的筋膜，使乳房背面产生空间后，再利用后侧加热的草本球进行按摩，反复将乳房周围的肌肉和血液向乳头侧聚集的草本球组；三组是和未接受任何按摩的对比组。资料分析利用SPSS v.25.0统计程序，为了解不同群体、测定时间的差异对丰胸产生的效果，实施了反复测定二元分散分析(repeated measures two-way ANOVA)。结果显示，测定时间和不同被调组对统计结果产生了影响(F(6,99)=30.307,p<.001)，按摩组、草本球组、对比组随着调查的实施，其胸围变化程度出现了差异，草本球组与按摩组或对比组相比，丰胸效果最大。
