Gentle therapy which the statement refers, is  directly related to the two types of diabetes: insulin-dependent (usually occures before 30 years) and non - insulin dependent (occures around the age of 40 years and increases its frequency with increasing of age).In any situation, excess blood glucose can be stored in certain tissues of the body. Structure and function of these tissues to alter and obstructed blood vessels can cause serious kidney complications or visual. To prevent such problems, detection and early treatment are essential.


Massage therapist  must first find from patient issues about appetite (excessive eating, weight loss), thirsty (if it is strong and permanent), fatigue, sleepiness, by increasing the amount of urine and micturition frequency, of hypertension, the limb mobility disfunctions. If some of the listed symptoms are present, additional therapy is made under the condition of the patient to be supervised by a physician.


Massage therapist does then an examination of muscles, the joints and tissues, with special attention to the legs, the shoulder blade and shoulder movements, the fingers and hands, spine movements. Also, check for spots around the ankles, slow healing wounds and signs.Proper work done still means a massage that favor bloodstream and lymphatics, and tapping, not at all deep, because of the skin and capillary fragility. Strengthening and drainage are slow and, in the first sessions, less frequent.
