| Överskrift | Massage therapy lowers blood glucose levels in children with Diabetes Mellitus. |
| Beskrivning | Twenty diabetic children were randomly assigned to a touch therapy or relaxation therapy group. The children's parents were taught one or the other therapy and were asked to provide them for 20 minutes before bedtime each night for 30 days. The immediate effects of the touch therapy were reduced parent anxiety and depressed mood and reduced child anxiety, fidgetiness and depressed affect. Over the 30 day period compliance for insulin and food regulation improved and blood glucose levels decreased to the normal range. |
