Abstract :
Aim and Objective:
The main goal is to find out if yoga treatment may
help men with varicose veins who are diagnosed with less
discomfort and swelling in their legs.
Methods:
This was an experimental study utilizing a
randomized, parallel group, active controlled trail design
to determine the effect of yoga therapy on the ankle
brachial index in male with middle-aged, asymptomatic
varicose veins. A total of sixty middle-aged males with
varicose veins were chosen from Chennai city, they were
split onto two groups, I and II, each with individuals of
thirty. The middle-aged VV males were thought to be
significantly more successful on the ankle-brachial index.
Before training programme began, a preliminary ankle
brachial index test was administered to two groups.
Group I participants received sixty-minute yoga therapy
sessions three days a week for a total of twelve weeks.
Subjects in Group II (CG) were at active rest. After the
study period ended, the two groups were retested using
the same dependent variables. A paired "t" test was
employed to know whether there was a significant
differences in efficacy between the experimental and
control groups. The ABI should be calculated by
dividing the maximum pressure in the leg by the highest
pressure in the arm, according to major international
medical associations. The significance was fixed at 0.05
level of confidence. Results: The study's findings
demonstrated that, among middle-aged male with
varicose veins, the Experimental Group saw a greater
degree of improvement p<0.001 in their ankle brachial
index (a decrease) in comparison to the Control Group.
In a confidence level of 0.05, the hypothesis was
accepted. Consequently, it can be said that YT greatly
helps middle-aged men with VV maintain a correct
walking pattern and restore valve integrity.
