Vibration-assisted exercise for type-2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding gentle vibration to physical activity helps improve blood sugar control in people with type-2 diabetes. It might be a good option if you're looking for a way to become more active without high-impact exercise.
