Simple exercises may help diabetics regain lost balance

This study tested whether adding sensory integration exercises (like balance and body-awareness training) to standard focused exercises helps people with diabetic nerve damage feel their body position better and improve balance. Thirty adults with type 2 diabetes and moderate nerve damage in their feet took part. One group did only focused exercises, while the other added sensory integration. After 8 weeks, the researchers measured changes in body awareness, balance, and quality of life.
