This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a combination of foot and ankle exercises plus mindful walking can help people with diabetic polyneuropathy—a type of nerve damage caused by diabetes that affects the feet. The program lasts 12 weeks and includes gentle strengthening and stretching exercises along with mindful walking sessions designed to help you move more safely and reduce pain. Researchers want to see if this combined approach can ease foot pain, improve your ability to walk and move, and help you feel better overall.
Diabetic nerve damage in the feet is painful and can make it hard to walk and stay active, which affects quality of life. Previous research shows that exercise and mindful walking each have some benefits, so this trial is testing whether combining them works even better than either approach alone.

You would attend sessions three times per week for 12 weeks, with each session lasting 30 minutes. During these sessions, you'll do foot and ankle exercises (like toe spreads, heel raises, and ankle stretches) that gradually get more challenging, plus mindful walking that uses sensory cues to help you move more safely. You'll also have assessments at the start and end of the program to measure your pain level, ability to move, and overall quality of life.
