Abstract

Statement of the problem: Type 2 Diabetes mellitus is a chronic hyperglycemia condition due to the improper insulin action either completely or partially though the insulin production is normal. This condition is on rapid incidence and prevalence rate as age increase. Different researchers and clinicians are on evidence based practice and trials to find a permanent solution of the condition. Recent studies have proven proper diet; life style modification, exercises and some medication can give effective control on the effects of type 2 diabetes mellitus condition. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of tactile surface aqua aerobic exercise on type 2 diabetes mellitus in young adults. Methodology and theoretical orientation: the study was commencing after the approval of institutional ethical clearance. Group A (15 subjects) for tactile surface aqua aerobic exercise and group B (15 subjects) for conventional on ground exercise were randomly allocated by probability sampling design. Finding: Statistical analysis was tested with t test at 95% level of significance (p<0.05). Both the group showed significant difference and Significant difference was observed between Pre and post of group B since T value giving its p-value 0.000 is less than 0.05, which indicated that group A is more significant than group B. Conclusion and significance: Group A showed better control of type 2 diabetes mellitus in subjects doing tactile surface aqua aerobic exercise then just conventional types of exercises to control diabetes mellitus. Recommendation: physical therapy exercise in aqua environment with tactile surface that stimulate tactile system can be adopted for better control of type 2 diabetes mellitus condition
