Abstract

|
|
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect on depression and self-esteem in elders taking part in the
Magma healing program.
Methods: This study was a single group pre-post quasi-experimental design. The participants were elders over 60 who had complained of depression more than once within the last 3 months, and who were living in the jurisdiction of a health clinic in the 3-area of Chungnam. Data from 14 elders who participated in the Magma healing program were analyzed using nonparametric paired t-test with SPSS 25.0.
Results: The study results showed that the Magma healing program had statistically significant results in reducing depression (z=-2.91, p=.004) and improving self-esteem (z=-2.91, p=.004) in elders.
Conclusion: The Magma healing program has been proven to be a very useful program to reduce depression in elders and promote self-esteem, thereby integrating their lives and leading to successful aging.
