In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

DPN often leads to balance issues, sensory deficits, and chronic pain, which can severely impact daily functioning and independence. INF therapy aims to improve nerve blood flow and alleviate neuropathic symptoms through manual techniques, while the Otago Exercise Program focuses on enhancing strength and balance to reduce fall risk. By comparing these two interventions, this study seeks to identify effective strategies that can improve balance, reduce pain, and enhance the quality of life for individuals suffering from DPN
