Purpose: This study investigates the effects of Sorusangzi massage on stress, chronic fatigue, and depression in middle-aged working women. Moreover, it confirms the applicability of Sorusangzi massage as an interventional alternative therapy for a healthy aging society. Methods: In this study, 40 middle-aged women working as insurance planners were divided into experimental and control groups, each comprising 20 participants. In the experimental group, participants' degrees of stress, fatigue, depression, blood pressure, and pulse rate were measured after performing Sorusangzi massage twice per week for six weeks. Results: After Sorusangzi massage was performed, the experimental group showed less stress and fatigue with significant differences: the average score of stress was 4.1 points in the experimental group and 7.2 points in the control group, and the average score of fatigue was 14.9 points in the experimental group and 19.5 points in the control group. With regard to changes in blood pressure and pulse rate, the experimental group also exhibited significantly decreased blood pressure: systolic blood pressure was 109.0 mmHg in the experimental group and 124.7 mmHg in the control group, and diastolic blood pressure was 64.4 mmHg in the experimental group and 81.4 mmHg in the control group. Pulse rate was 75.8 beats/min in the control group and 64.7 beats/min in the experimental group, showing significantly decreased pulse rate in the experimental group. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate positive effects of Sorusangzi massage on stress and fatigue relief. Furthermore, it reveals that Sorusangzi massage can ultimately improve the psychological conditions and quality of life of middle-aged working women. This study concludes that Sorusangzi massage may serve as an interventional alternative therapy for a healthy aging society.

Our country is defenseless against the aging population in society that is suddenly and rapidly increasing. This is expressed as the aging shock and aged society earthquake, warning us of the crisis in the future society. Senior citizens of Korea are a group that does not receive proper education due to various social factors, and it is a group that requires lifelong education more than any other group, and therefore, senior citizens have become a priority target for lifelong education. Thus, the need for lifelong education for seniors can be said to be in establishing a new senior citizen image so that they may live a fuller retirement by improving their abilities to appropriately adapt to the rapidly changing modern society due to the digital times. Furthermore, with the enhanced cultural level and personal desire for a fuller life in the modern society, the necessity for leisure activities has been emphasized. Instead of simply relieving stress through leisure activities, it aims at being provided with educational opportunities through leisure activities. Therefore, senior leisure activity education should be an important method for establishing the senior citizen identity of a self-oriented senior, productive senior, volunteering senior, informed senior, and a well-rounded senior, which are all the image of senior citizens in the 21st century. In addition, a specialized leisure activity program that systematically provides education for leisure activities should be performed from the perspective of lifelong education. Hence, the significance of senior citizen leisure activities as lifelong education is in improving health, enhancing sociability and realizing one's self, while improving the quality of life for senior citizens. It will be greatly meaningful for establishing the new senior citizen image in which they independently live their own lives, while not being dependent on others, as required in the 21st century.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of practicing Hatha Yoga on the elderly. I have focused on the changes in subjective pain and a feeling of helplessness in their daily lives of elderly people over 65 who are suffering from chronic back pain. We looked at both men and women over 65, who were not working during the period, all of whom had been experiencing back pain over 6 months. All the subjects have never practiced Hatha Yoga or any other specialized and/or systematic workouts at that time. Among them, the men and women over age 65 with chronic back pain were selected as a group and practiced Hatha Yoga three times a week for eight weeks. In conclusion, the study proves that Hatha Yoga is an effective way for the old over 65 with chronic back pain by acquiring muscular strength and flexibility at the same time.
