"How to put an end to weak and brittle bones, while improving your confidence and strength."
If you've recently been told that you have osteoporosis or osteopenia, it's tempting to brush it off as a "normal" part of aging. You may think that because everyone your age seems to be having the same trouble as you that it's something you will have to learn to live with.

If this is happening to you, you're not alone. We hear these types of things all the time. In fact, Osteoporosis is one of the most common problems we see at HouseFit.

Look What Others Are Saying About Osteoporosis Treatments From HouseFit...
Barb - 84
from Saint Louis, MO |
Barb was screened by her doctor and found to have osteopenia. Then she had a fall in 2018 that resulted in a hip fracture. She underwent surgery to repair her hip and had therapy afterward, then went about her life again. She was also started on medication to help build up her bone strength again.
She’s worked with us at HouseFit for both physical therapy and group exercise where we performed lots of strength training and weight bearing activities and then went for a follow-up. Her numbers had improved so much that she was no longer in the osteopenia category. |
