Diabetes and physiotherapy

Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in diabetes management, helping patients improve their quality of life and prevent complications associated with the disease. Diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, is often linked to a sedentary lifestyle and excess weight. Physiotherapy intervenes by providing tailored physical exercises that promote blood sugar regulation , improve insulin sensitivity, and contribute to weight loss. In addition, it helps prevent and treat musculoskeletal and neuropathic complications of diabetes, such as joint pain and peripheral neuropathy, which can limit mobility and increase the risk of falls. Through an individualized approach, the physiotherapist guides the patient in adopting a more active lifestyle and managing symptoms, thus promoting better long-term diabetes control .
