This pilot study evaluates potential biological and psychological effects of Swedish massage in adults with type 1 diabetes. Massage may influence stress-related mechanisms, such as hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity and inflammation, which are linked to impaired insulin sensitivity and glycemic control. Twenty participants with type 1 diabetes will receive weekly 45-60-minute Swedish massage sessions for five weeks. Biological outcomes include HbA1c, fasting glucose, copeptin, hs-CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α. Glycemic variability will be assessed using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Psychological outcomes include perceived stress (PSS-10) and anxiety (GAD-7). The study aims to explore feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary within-group effects on stress regulation and glycemic balance
