<title><b>A comparative study on effect of vestibular and auditory Stimulation on autonomic measures, sleep quality and Quality of life in college students</b> </title>
<abstract>The present study was under taken to compare the beneficial effects of vestibular and auditory stimulation. A total of 39 healthy female participants age between 18-25 years were included in the present experimental study. Vestibular and auditory stimulation was administered by standardized methods in the literature. Following vestibular stimulation significant improvement in sleep duration and significant decrease in day time dysfunction was observed. Systolic blood pressure was decreased in both vestibular and auditory stimulation groups. However, it was not statistically significant. No significant change was observed in diastolic pressure followed by either vestibular stimulation or auditory stimulation. Significant increase in the pulse rate was observed followed by auditory stimulation. Day time sleepiness was significantly decreased followed by both vestibular and auditory stimulation. However it was more profound in vestibular stimulation. No significant change was observed in quality of life followed by vestibular stimulation and auditory stimulation. Both vestibular and auditory stimulation are equally beneficial. However, they may be effective, provided the intervention is of long duration. We recommend further detailed study with higher sample size, including both the genders and with more parameters.</abstract>
