Strong bones, stronger you!


Did you know regular weight-bearing exercise is one of the best ways to prevent and manage osteoporosis?

It helps improve bone density, balance and over all strength - all key to staying active and independent!


What is osteoporosis?


Osteoporosis is a silent condition that weakens your bones, making them brittle and more likely to break.

Bone density = The amount of mineral in your bones.


High density = Strong bones

Low density = Fracture risk


How can Physio help?


Resistance training is at the cornerstone of non-pharmacological therapy for osteoporosis.

High intensity resistance training under supervision of a health professional is recommended as a safe and effective method to increase bone density.


Your call to action!

1. Personalised plans for bone adaptations

2. Individual and class options available
