Diabetes treatment
Veldhoven & Waalre
Physiotherapy at Cardo Healthcare, focusing on diabetes, offers many benefits for people with diabetes mellitus. Normally, the body regulates blood sugar levels very precisely with the hormone insulin. People with diabetes either produce insufficient or no insulin, or their bodies don’t respond efficiently to insulin. When this metabolism is disrupted, blood sugar levels rise excessively.
Physiotherapy can have a beneficial effect on both the prevention and progression of diabetes. The therapy directly improves insulin sensitivity, glucose metabolism, and glucose tolerance. This means that blood sugar levels become more stable and your resilience increases.
