Abstract :
The present study was designed to find out the effect of Integrated yoga modules of yogic practices on physical and physiological variables among police with dysmenoria. It was hypothesized that there would be significant differences in physical and physiological variables among police with dysmenoria due to the influences of Integrated yoga modules of yogic practices. To achieve the purpose of the study, 45 police with dysmenoria from chennai, their aged between 30 and 40 years were selected subjects were divided into two experimental group and control group with 15 subjects each in a group. Experimental group I – (Bihar school of yogic practices) group and Experimental group II – (B.K.S. Iyengar practices) for the period of 12 weeks of an hour in the morning. The control group was not exposed to any specific training but they participated in the regular activities. The pre-test and post-test were conduct before and after the training for three groups. The psychological variables flexibility was measured by sit and reach test and resting pulse rate was measured by stethoscope and stop watch. The data pertaining to the variables collected from the three groups before and after the training period were statistically analyzed by using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to determine the significant difference and tested at0.05 level of significance. The results of the study showed that stress decreased significantly as a result of Integrated yoga modules of yogic practices. Hence, the hypothesis was accepted at 0.05 level of confidence. The conclusion is that the Bihar school of yogic practices and B.K.S. Iyengar practices helped to increase and reduce the flexibility and resting pulse rate among the police with dysmenoria.
