Abstrakt: Background: There is a need for a non-pharmacological approach to reduce pain and plantar pressure in diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Matrix Rhythm Therapy (MaRhyThe®) is a therapeutic modality that works on the principle of physiologic rhythmic oscillations of the body cells. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of MaRhyThe® on neuropathic pain and maximum plantar pressure distribution among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with peripheral neuropathy. Materials and methods: A total of 33 participants with DPN were recruited for the study based on inclusion criteria. Maximum plantar pressure was recorded using Win-Track 11K005, and the pain score was obtained using a visual analogue scale. Ten sessions of MaRhyThe® were given to all the participants. Outcome measures were evaluated at the baseline and after 10th session. Paired t-test was performed to analyze the changes in outcome measures. Results: Participants of DPN were recruited with the average age of 64 ± 9 years, and an average duration of diabetes was 14 ± 9 years were included. Results of the present study found significant improvement in neuropathic pain and plantar pressure in post intervention assessment. (p < 0.05) Conclusion: In the present study, we found that MaRhyThe® is effective in reducing neuropathic pain and maximum plantar pressure in type 2 diabetes mellitus with peripheral neuropathy.
