Jae Young Jin, Jeung Keun Suh
Abstract
This study analyzed the effect of Aromatherapy containing Linalool on psychological stability, depression and stress from childcare and houseworks of housewives in their mid-thirties to mid-forties. After classifying the research subjects into a control group, an almond oil massage group, an almond oil massage group with 0.5% of linalool, total 10 massage programs were conducted for 5 weeks. As a result, the experimental group that received massage with Linalool, showed an increase in psychological stability, compared to the control group that Linalool wasn`t applied to. The experimental group showed a significant decrease in depression, compared to the control group, but there was no difference of the effect depending on Linalool. Also, there was no difference in the effect on stress from childcare and houseworks between the control group and the experimental group. These results demonstrate that aromatherapy with Linalool relieved tension of housewives with stress from childcare and houseworks and was effective for their psychological stability.
