Diabetic Patient (Type 2)

Movement program for individuals with type 2 diabetes emphasizing glucose management through exercise, peripheral neuropathy screening, foot care awareness, and progressive cardiovascular conditioning.

Clinical note: Peripheral neuropathy screening is essential before any balance or foot-loading exercise. Foot inspection before each session. Exercise timing relative to meals and medication affects blood glucose response.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Diabetic Patient (Type 2) assessment include?
The assessment covers Ankle Dorsiflexion, Single Leg Balance, Hip Internal Rotation, Thoracic Extension with functional screening criteria. It generates a prioritized corrective plan with 3 intervention targets.
How is the Diabetic Patient (Type 2) protocol different from a general assessment?
This protocol is calibrated specifically for diabetic patient (type 2) with 6 targeted tests, impaired-specific benchmarks, and corrective exercises designed for this population's unique needs and constraints.
How do I get started with the Diabetic Patient (Type 2) protocol?
Apply for an assessment through AKMI. Your coach will run the Diabetic Patient (Type 2) protocol as part of your initial structural evaluation, then build a personalized corrective plan based on the findings.
