Stay healthy, stay strong, stay active.
Maintaining strength and stability as we age is key to staying active in the long term—and our bones remain at the foundation of this effort.
Osteoporosis is a disease that results in the loss of bone density, the thinning of bone structure, and the loss of bone strength.
While osteopenia/osteoporosis can affect people at any age, the incidence increases after age 50 with risk of spine, hip and wrist fractures—sometimes after having experienced no previous symptoms. But you can take steps to prevent and manage the effects of osteoporosis. We at Alpine Physical Therapy will guide you on an individualized program to help strengthen your body after diagnosis or injury.
Our treatments include:
- Improving posture
- Increasing spine & extremity strength
- Training proper movement patterns to reduce risk
- Improving balance to reduce fall risk
- Exercises focused on optimal bone health
- Regaining function & movement
