What is Osteoporosis?
Osteoporosis is a disease that slowly, quietly weakens bones, often going undiagnosed – even when it breaks them. Osteoporosis is caused by low bone mass and the weakening of bone, which can lead to increased risk of fracture.
Osteoporosis Prevention & Treatment
At my clinic, I provide a comprehensive, research-based approach to helping patients prevent bone loss, improve strength, and reduce the risk of falls and fractures. Each appointment is personalized and includes assessment, education, and an individualized exercise plan.
1. Review of DEXA / Bone Density Test Results (If you have one)
2. Physical Assessment
I perform a detailed physical exam to evaluate.
3. Personalized Exercise Program
Your treatment plan will include exercises that are scientifically shown to maintain or improve bone density.
4. Education on Proper Technique
5. Nutrition & Supplement Recommendations
Improving bone health is not just about exercise. During the visit, I also provide individualized guidance on:
Bone-supportive foods
Dietary habits to improve calcium absorption
Supplement options such as Calcium, Magnesium, and Vitamin D, when needed
My Goal
To help you stay strong, confident, active, and independent using an evidence-based approach that supports your bones, muscles, and overall health.
