Background: Many menopausal women use complementary therapies to cope with the symptoms and yoga is one among them. The evidence suggesting that even the short-term practice of Yoga can decrease both psychological and physiological risk factors for menopausal symptoms. Objectives: The experimental study assessed the effectiveness of yoga therapy on menopausal symptoms among perimenopausal women. Materials and Method: A menopausal rating scale (10 items) was used to assess the effectiveness of yoga therapy among perimenopausal women. Results: The mean post test score 51.3 in the experimental group were found to be lesser than the mean pre-test scores 70.0. Mean post-test scores 69.3 and mean pre-test stress scores 72.9 in the control group had some variation. In order to find the significant difference, unpaired 't' test was computed for experimental group ('t' (49) =25.27; p <0.001) and control group ('t' (49) =-7.8; p <0.001). Conclusion: The study concludes by showing that yoga therapy was effective to reduce some menopausal symptoms of women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
