Whole body vibration therapy for type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether whole body vibration therapy can help people with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar better. It involves standing on a vibrating platform for short sessions, which may improve muscle function and glucose control without needing exercise.
