The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of massage therapy and exercise therapy on body composition and blood cholesterol in the obese women. Sixteen college women were randomly assigned to aged $20.1{\pm}2.7$ years who had not exercised regurlarly, volunteered to participate in the present study as subjects. They completed a 12 weeks massage therapy and exercise therapy performed 3 times/week, for 60min/session. Massage put in exercise treatment effect of 12 weeks in BMI has shown a significant decrease those are before test $25.1{\pm}2.2$ to after test $23.7{\pm}3.2$(p<0.05). The waist measure/height has a difference by before test r=0.5 to after a test r=0.47, and waist measure/hips measure by before test r=0.8 to after test r=0.75. A total cholesterol(TC) average value has $187.6{\pm}36.9$ before test to $168{\pm}32.4$(p<0.05) after test, a significant difference. Also average value of LDLC has $114{\pm}33.8$ before test to $99.2{\pm}30.4$(p<0.05) that shows a difference, but HDLC was $52{\pm}7.5$ before test to $52.3{\pm}7.7$(p<0.05) after test which means a none difference. HDLC does not have any difference but total cholesterol and LDLC were significantly different. It was a short program of 3 times a week, 60 min/session but, a dance meditation exercise program with high strength self massage had given a big effect in consideration. Using these scientific studies data, wish a program related by obese could make an activation in a beauty part.
