To investigate the efficacy of classical massage on stress perception and mood disturbances, 34 women diagnosed with primary breast cancer were randomized into an intervention or control group. For a period of 5 weeks, the intervention group (n = 17) received biweekly 30-min classical massages. The control group (n = 17) received no additional treatment to their routine health care. The Perceived Stress Questionnaire (PSQ) and the Berlin Mood Questionnaire (BSF) were used and the patients' blood was collected at baseline (T1), at the end of the intervention period (T2), and 6 weeks after T2 (T3). Compared with control group, women in the intervention group reported significantly lower mood disturbances, especially for anger (p = 0.048), anxious depression (p = 0.03) at T2, and tiredness at T3 (p = 0.01). No group differences were found in PSQ scales, cortisol and serotonin concentrations at T2 and T3. However, perceived stress and cortisol serum levels (p = 0.03) were significantly reduced after massage therapy (T2) compared with baseline in the intervention group. Further research is needed to validate our findings.
为了探究古典按摩对压力感知和情绪紊乱的疗效，34 名被诊断为原发性乳腺癌的女性被随机分为干预组和对照组。干预组（n=17）在 5 周的时间里，每两周接受 30 分钟的古典按摩。对照组（n=17）除了常规的医疗护理外，不接受任何额外的治疗。研究人员使用了感知压力问卷（PSQ）和柏林情绪问卷（BSF），并在基线（T1）、干预期末（T2）和 T2 后 6 周（T3）采集了患者的血液。与对照组相比，干预组的女性在 T2 时报告的情绪紊乱明显较少，尤其是愤怒（p=0.048）、焦虑抑郁（p=0.03），而 T3 时则是疲倦（p=0.01）。在 T2 和 T3 时，PSQ 量表、皮质醇和血清素浓度在两组间没有差异。然而，干预组在按摩治疗后（T2）与基线相比，感知压力和皮质醇血清水平显著降低（p=0.03）。需要进一步的研究来验证我们的发现。
