Effects of Aerobic Thai Dance in Patient With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

The goal of this type of study is clinical trial. This to learn about effects of applied aerobic Thai dance exercise on gait balance and sudomotor function in patient with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Test variables of gait, balance, function of sudomotor, Physiological data such as pulse, blood pressure, body composition, ankle and leg muscle strength, compare with control and experimental group in diabetes with peripheral neuropathy.

The main question Question 1: Dose Applied aerobic Thai dance exercise affects gait and balance in diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy? Question 2: Does applied aerobic Thai dance exercise affect sudomotor function in diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy? Participants will divided into 2 groups: the control group and the experimental group. By randomly sampling 22 people from each group

1. The control group was advised to exercise at home for a period of 12 weeks. 2. The experimental group participated in Applied aerobic Thai dance exercise 60 minutes per session, 3 times per week, for a period of 12 weeks.

After 12 weeks, variable data were collected and to compare within and between groups.
