INTRODUCTION Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 (DM2) is a chronic condition associated with elevated blood glucose levels. Exercise has shown to have a prognostic effect on reducing the blood glucose levels among individuals suffering from DM2. But, there is a need to study the effect of a novel unique structured therapeutic exercise program on blood glucose levels among individuals suffering from DM2. MATERIALS AND METHODS A Pre Study – Post Study design research study was carried among individuals suffering from DM2. A novel unique structured therapeutic exercise program at a moderate intensity as per the Rate of Perceived (RPE) Scale as an intervention was delivered to 30 participants suffering from DM2. Fasting Blood Glucose (mg/dL), Fasting Blood Glucose (mmol/L) and HbA1c (%) are outcome measures that were used to assess the blood glucose levels among the 30 participants suffering from DM2. RESULTS A lowering of blood glucose levels were seen among the participants in this study. DISCUSSION This reduction in blood glucose levels could be attributed to the increased physical activity, increased glucose uptake due to the novel unique therapeutic exercise program. CONCLUSION Thus, we conclude that a novel unique structured therapeutic exercise performed at moderate intensity as per the Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale helped reduce the blood glucose levels among individuals suffering from DM2.
