Summary

This study tests whether gentle yoga sessions done online can reduce symptoms like nausea, bloating, and abdominal pain in people with diabetic gastroparesis—a condition where the stomach empties too slowly. Participants will join live yoga classes via video call, focusing on breathing, meditation, and relaxation. The goal is to see if this non-drug approach improves both physical symptoms and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
virtual yoga sessions led by a trained instructor via Zoom or Teams
What this could lead to
If effective, online yoga could become a safe, accessible option to help manage gastroparesis symptoms and improve well-being.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral intervention study without blinding, so results may be influenced by placebo effects. Benefits may vary widely among individuals.
