change. In order to analyze the relativity between pre- and post-experiment data, the study verified
levels of significance into P<0.5.
As for the length between eye-end and mouth-end, it shortened after the massage. It has relativity
in the diversity of the data.( T= 2.762, P= 0.007)
Length between eye-end and ear-end also shortened after the massage. It has relativity in the
diversity of the data.( T= 2.412, P = 0.019)
Statistic analyses in length between mouth-end and chin-end have no relativity. (T= 1.494, p=
0.140) But in average, size of face happen to come smaller from 10.40cm to 10.05cm.
As a result, the study shows manual massage in arms and legs have cosmetically effect in facial
