We recently had some research published on our use of massage or touch with a diabetic population and our results were very promising. You can read the review in massagemag.com/R86.htm. There are also research studies in the Touch Research Institute at the Miami School of Pediatrics.

I also have a webpage that describes our program and interventions at homepages.about.com/vajara/15-minutestressout/index.html.

Hope this helps.
