Aim: To check the effectiveness of the program of physical therapy of patients with type 1 diabetes.Materials and Methods: The study involved 30 people (25-35-year-old women) with type 1 diabetes of moderate severity of the disease in the subcompensation stage, who were at the sanatorium stage of treatment. Patients, along with following a diet and insulin therapy, were engaged in physical exercises according to the author’s program based on the Nordic Walking. Assessment of the impact of physical rehabilitation was performed on blood sugar level, heart rate, blood pressure.Results: It is established that at the end of the experiment the blood sugar level of the EG patients significantly (p≤0.05) decreased by 0.8 mmol/l (7.54%), in contrast to CG, where the difference is 0.3 mmol/l (2.75%) and is unreliable (p≥0.05). This indicates the effectiveness of the developed program of physical therapy for diabetic patients based on Nordic Walking classes in combination with traditional methods of treatment.Conclusions: Nordic Walking classes for patients with type 1 diabetes help to increase insulin sensitivity, stabilize blood pressure, reduce the risk of developing coronary heart disease, increase immunity, expand the functional capabilities of the body, improve the well-being and psychoemotional state of patients.
