Purpose: This study was to verify the effects of infant massage on weight recovery from physiologic weight loss, physical development of infants, and identity of their mothers. Method: A study with quasi-experimental design with time delay method was conducted from October 20, 2004 through February 20, 2005 with mothers and infants recruited from postpartum care center. 20 infants in the experimental group (once a day massage group) and 22 control group remained for the final analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS win 11.0 program by frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test and $X^2-test$. Results: There was no significant group difference in weight recovery from physiologic weight loss. However, experiment group showed significant increase in weight and chest circumference in 4 weeks after birth compare to the control group. For changes in behavior, experimental group showed more positive behavioral changes. The mothers who conducted massage for their infants showed higher score of identity as mothers. Conclusion: Since massage applied once a day can be still effective on physical growth of the infants, massage training program for mothers should be developed to apply easily for their infants at home. Further study is suggested to identify influencing factors on performed by mothers and identity as mothers.

근막동통은 발통점과 중추흥분효과가 나타나는 국소적 근육성 동통이다. 발통점은 근육의 일부나 건 부착점에 나타나는 부위로서 단단한 띠로서 느껴지고 촉진시 통증을 유발한다. 통증은 관련된 발통점의 위치에 따라 연관된 부위에 나타난다. 이러한 근막 발통점에 따른 증상은 약한 기능이상부터 일상생활이 어렵게 되는 정도의 심한 통증까지 다양하다. 이의 발생에는 국소적 근육이상, 심부 동통, 심리적 스트레스의 증가, 수면장애와 전신적인 요인들도 관여한다. 일반적으로 치료는 보존적인 처치로써, fluoro-methane 같은 vapocoolant spray를 사용하는 사용하여 분사신장하는 방법이 있으며, 국소적인 주사, 마사지, 초음파, 온열요법등이 있다. 여러 환자에서 근막동통을 가지는 환자에 분사신장요법을 시행한 결과 대부분 환자에서 증상의 개선을 보였다. 근막동통의 치료시 분사신장요법은 매우 보존적인 처치로 임상가의 적용과 접근이 쉬우며, 환자로 하여금 치료에 따른 불안감을 줄이면서 만족을 느낄 수 있는 치료로 사료된다. 그러나 만성 환자의 경우 분사신장요법의 치료결과에 대한 만족도가 높지 않았다. 분사신장 용법은 근막동통을 가진 환자 모두에서 효과적이지는 않으나 치료의 도입으로, 근막동통을 진단시에 일차적으로 사용할 수 있는 안정한 보존적인 용법으로 사료된다.
