Summary
This study tests whether a 12-week program of supervised foot and ankle exercises can help people with diabetes who have nerve damage in their feet. The exercises are done in groups at primary care clinics. Researchers will measure changes in symptoms, foot movement, and quality of life. The goal is to see if this low-cost approach can be easily used in everyday healthcare.
