Abstract :
In this paper, through the study of the characteristic rule of rolling massage experts´ forearm surface EMG signal (sEMG) in rolling massage, the rolling massage analysis and evaluation methods based on the analysis of sEMG is presented. Therefore, during the implementation of rolling massage, muscle semg signals of the massage´s three block muscle was collected at the real time, the relations between the electromyographic signal changeable characteristics and rolling method massage strength was discussed, meanwhile massager´s muscle force situation was monitored, the ratio of muscle force was analyzed to assess and correct the massage action for the person whose action is not standard.
