BACKGROUND: Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is the third most common neurological disorder and it ranges about 54% among 1, 00,000 people per year. Based on previous population studies have reported prevalence rate of diabetic neuropathy ranges 8.54% and 13.46% in diabetic patients. Several studies have shown that training has positive effects on gait speed, postural stability and mobility in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, also there was significant control of balance and dynamic activities. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of physical training and multisensory training on balance of persons with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. OBJECTIVE: Isto compare between physical training and multisensory training on balance among Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy patients. METHODOLOGY: Study design is quasi experimental, it is comparative types, convenient sampling with 43 subjects and the study is done for 6 weeks. 43 subjects were taken according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS: The result shows that there is significance between pre-test and post-test, p value is < 0.05 but comparison between physical training and multisensory training shows the statistically insignificant results p>0.05 that is both training is equally effective to improve balance on patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. CONCLUSION: This study concludes that both Physical training and multisensory training are equally effective in Improving Balance among patients with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy. Hence both the Training programs can be given for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy patients.
