Osteoporosis Intervention Program
For those individuals that have been diagnosed with osteoporosis, its precursor osteopenia or those who are at risk for bone loss, our Osteoporosis Intervention Program has been clinically proven to increase bone density in the femur, hip and lumbar spine. This program safely and effectively stresses the musculoskeletal structures in two sessions per week. For the spine, we use the MedX Lumbar Spine Testing and Rehabilitation equipment, the only exercises that have been clinically proven to increase the density of the lumbar vertebrae. In addition to added bone health, this program also offers these other health benefits:
