Diabetes is unique among chronic health conditions because, to a large extent, treatment depends upon self-management. Many patients participate in diabetes self-management training, which provides them with an overall education about diabetes, including how to monitor blood glucose levels as well as knowledge about diet, exercise and insulin.

"We've known for many years that patients who effectively learn to control blood glucose, blood pressure and blood lipids have decreased occurrence of serious complications, including cardiovascular disease, kidney damage, blindness and lower limb amputations," explained Martin L. Mandel, M.D., F.A.C.E., a Lake Hospital System endocrinologist who is serving as the study's medical advisor.

Clinical research demonstrates that music can improve respiration, lower blood pressure, reduce heart rate, relax muscle tension, decrease pain by increasing levels of endorphins, increase immunologic function and reduce stress and anxiety. Music also has the power to calm or excite, depending on personal preference and the type of music.
