Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of Progressive muscle relaxation and stretching exercises mediated by stress on heart rate variability, cortisol level, galvanic skin response and perceived stress scale. The main questions it aims to answer are, Will there be a significant difference between the effects of Progressive muscle relaxation and stretching exercises in the diabetic population? Can stress mediate the effects of Progressive muscle relaxation and stretching exercises in the diabetic population? Researchers will compare the effects of Progressive muscle relaxation and stretching exercises mediated by stress on heart rate variability, cortisol level, galvanic skin response and perceived stress scale. Participants will: Be given session of Progressive muscle relaxation or stretching exercises or no physical therapy treatment 3 sessions per week for 2 weeks and visit the clinic once every 3 days for 2 weeks for intervention. Measurements will be taken before and after every session. Perceived Stress will be assessed at the start of the intervention at baseline and then after 2 weeks.
