Abstract
to assess the effect of cupping therapy on painful peripheral neuropathy in type ll diabetic women. Subject and methods : Sixty class (l) obesity female participated with type 2 Diabetes mellitus for more than 5 years, their age ranged from (55 - 65 years) and they were randomly assigned into two groups (A&B) equal in number. Each group consisted of thirty patients. Parameters measured from both groups before the study and after 12 weeks at the end of the study, were HbA1c, nerve conduction velocity, and Pain. group (A) performed cupping therapy once amonth for three months and aerobic training in the form of walking on treadmill with intensity ranged from 60_70% of HRmax for three sessions every week for 3 months while group (B) performed aerobic exercise only. Both groups were under medical treatment. Results: There was a significance decrease in HbA1c level by14.76% in group (A) and by 10.36% in group (B), significant decrease in pain level by 48.05% in group (A) and by 37.88% in group (B), significant increase in median nerve conduction velocity by 17.91% in group (A) and by 5.11% in group (B), and significant increase in peroneal nerve conduction velocity by 20.06% in group (A) and by 14.39% in group (B) post treatment. Conclusion: Using cupping therapy combined with aerobic exercise is more efficient than aerobic exercises only regarding painful peripheral neuropathy in type 2 diabetic women.
