Full wet sheet pack is one of the naturopathic treatment modality where person is enveloped with cold wet wrapping upon that dry wrapping to prevent evaporation. So this study aims to evaluate the physiological changes of full wet sheet pack on autonomic variables in healthy individual. 60 healthy volunteers of both genders were recruited for the study. Intervention was given for 45 minutes. Assessments for autonomic variables (Heart rate variability, Respiratory rate, Digit pulse volume, Blood pressure and Temperature) were done 5 minutes before and 5 minutes immediately after the treatment. Data was checked for normal distribution and analyzed by using paired t test and Wilcoxon matched pair test with SPSS (Version 21.0) package. In this study comparison of pre and post variables following full wet sheet pack showed there is increase in RMSSD, NN50, PNN50, HF, mean RR and slight changes in RR,VLF, PR is noticed. Whereas HR, LF, LF/HF ratio, SBP, DBP, and Temperature readings were decreased after full wet sheet pack. So application of full wet sheet pack on the body enhances parasympathetic activity which has relaxing and calming effect.
