Magnetic stimulation and balance training to prevent falls in diabetic nerve pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests if adding a non-invasive magnetic stimulation treatment to balance exercises can reduce fall risk in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage in their feet and legs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether a gentle movement technique called Feldenkrais can help people with diabetic nerve damage improve their balance and control. It may be an option if you have stable blood sugar and can walk on your own.
This study tests whether combining foot and ankle exercises with mindful walking can reduce pain and improve mobility in people with diabetic nerve damage in their feet.
This trial tests if a special sensory training program can improve balance, walking, and daily function in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage (neuropathy). It may help you move better and feel more steady on your feet.
This study tests two types of balance training—one on a firm floor and one on a moving rolling board—to see which helps people with diabetes-related nerve damage improve their balance and reduce fall risk. The goal is to find the best way to strengthen balance and walking ability in people with long-standing diabetes.
This study tests whether adding special movement exercises (called proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) to standard Otago exercises can help improve balance and reduce the risk of falls in people with type 2 diabetes who have nerve damage in their feet.
This study tests whether a special electrical stimulation treatment to the soles of the feet during dialysis can improve balance and walking in people with diabetes who have nerve damage in the feet. If it works, it may help reduce fall risk and improve mobility.
