A massage device control method and a massage device. The method involves: presetting multiple temperature modes for a far infrared hot compression and impulses corresponding to multiple temperature modes receiving a temperature mode selected by a user (S21) outputting the impulse corresponding to the selected temperature mode so that the far infrared hot compression is worked under the temperature mode corresponding to the impulse (S21). The method can be used to adjust the temperature of a far infrared hot compression.本發明適用於健保領域,本發明係揭露一種按摩裝置之控制方法及按摩裝置,其方法包括:預先設定的紅外線熱敷之複數個溫度模式以及該複數個溫度模式對應之脈衝接收用戶選擇的溫度模式輸出與選擇的溫度模式對應之脈衝使紅外線熱敷工作於脈衝對應之溫度模式。本發明技術手段具有可以調節紅外熱敷溫度的優點。
