Strong Bones. Strong Muscles. Better Living.
Our bones are living tissues that need care throughout life. As we grow older, bones can become weaker, increasing the risk of fractures, loss of mobility and loss of independence.
Osteoporosis often develops silently. Many people do not know they have weak bones until they suffer a fracture.
Our focus is on preventing bone loss, identifying problems early and keeping you active and independent.
Taking Care of Your Bones
Good bone health is more than just having a good bone density. We look at the whole picture, including:
Bone strength and fracture risk
Nutrition and calcium and vitamin D
Muscle strength and physical activity
Balance and risk of falls
Lifestyle and other health conditions
Medicines that may affect bone health
When needed, bone density testing and other investigations can help assess your bone health and guide treatment.
Bones and Muscles Work Together
Strong bones need strong muscles. Maintaining muscle strength, balance and mobility is especially important as we age.
Healthy bones + strong muscles + good balance = greater mobility and independence.
Our aim is not only to treat osteoporosis, but to help you prevent fractures, maintain strength and stay active throughout life.
Because taking care of your bones today helps protect your independence tomorrow.
