Any woman over the age of 50 should consider adding the Strong Bone Health Program (SBH) to her weekly routine. This is because SBH effectively builds your bone strength/density better than any other exercise and is certainly better than drugs. This is important because millions of women each year discover they have a condition called osteopenia/osteoporosis, a low bone density disease with devastating consequences. Most never suspect they have the condition until they break a bone or get the frightening news from their doctor from a routine DEXA scan. This is why Osteopenia/Osteoporosis is called ‘the silent killer.’

Meet Linda, 73. This is what happened to her bones.

Linda owns, a three-and-a-half-acre farm and tends to it by herself. She felt that because of her lifestyle, she was strong, healthy and really had nothing to worry about. Linda’s farm is chock full of goats, chickens, dogs, cats, and a beautiful pasture constantly in need of a good weed-whacking. Her strength is particularly important to her.  However, Linda learned the difference between being ‘active’ and ‘strong’. ‘Activity’ does not build strong bones and does not build overall body strength.

When she was diagnosed with Osteoporosis, she was shocked! She began doing research about the medications, the only option presented to her, and all of the potential side effects. The side effects worried her. Linda was desperately hoping to find something to improve her bone density without drugs.

Linda joined the SuperSlow Zone’s Strong Bone Health Program in October 2020. It fit what she was looking for: non-drug, FDA recognized, patented, Strong Bone Health medical exercise program at SuperSlow Zone. Ten minutes once a week is all it takes.

It only took 1 month until she was on-board with SSZ’s signature Personal Strength Training Program. Linda wanted optimal muscles and strength, and all the health benefits that come with this . . . standard gyms had let her down in the past. She found building her strength at the SSZ studio was 100% personalized attention with the team at SSZ Sugar Land.

When she combined her Strong Bone Health and Personal Strength Training and Balance Programs into one appointment, both programs take 30 minutes total, one time a week.

Not only did she find what she was looking for, but she found so much more. She found a non-drug exercise to improve bone density, an exercise to increase her overall fitness/health level, and perhaps most importantly, a comfortable place of professional expertise – that tracked her results. Linda understands that these two different exercise protocols, one specifically for her bones and another for her entire body, are important.

“I was just grateful to find something,” said Linda. “I did some research, googled it, and called—the rest is history. There was no pressure from Maeve, the General Manager, either. It’s a once a week, 30-minute investment that has helped me feel so much stronger and make my bones stronger. It is doable by anyone.”

Learning About Osteoporosis Medications: (Side Effects and Anxiety)

“Don’t Rely on Medication as the
Only Treatment or Therapy for
Osteoporosis”

– Mayo Clinic

 

According to the Mayo Clinic, medication treatments typically tried first are bisphosphonates such as Alendronate (Fosamax), Ibandronate (Boniva), Risedronate (Actonel), and Zoledronic Acid (Reclast).  These medications have side effects that you need to consider:

• Nausea
• Stomach pain
• Heartburn
• Allergic reactions
• Gastrointestinal problems, such as trouble swallowing, inflammation of the esophagus, and ulcers
• Osteonecrosis (death of bone tissue) in the jaw
• Fracture of the thighbone (femur) with more than five years of use

In addition to potential side effects of the medications, you might also feel anxiety about adding more pills and managing them in your daily life.

Finally, most of the osteoporosis medications have a limited time that they can be used. This leaves you with, “What do I do next?”

Medical Exercise for Osteopenia and Osteoporosis: What Is It?

SuperSlow Zone’s Strong Bone Health program utilizes medical grade whole-body vibration equipment and specialized, patented bioDensity equipment. Whole body vibration safely prepares the muscle for using the bioDensity equipment leverages fundamental medical principles to create an organic, safer way for your body to replenish and repair your bones. Exercising on both devices once a week for 15 minutes is all that’s needed to improve your bone density and improve the way you feel.

Leveraging incredibly sophisticated equipment, our medical exercise treatment simplifies exercise movements specific optimal loading creating the desired effects on your bones. Precisely targeted weight-bearing slightly compresses the bone matrix and triggers the cells to assimilate more calcium and other minerals, and ultimately to increase bone density. The amount of weight-bearing that causes this response from the bone is called “osteogenic loading” because it takes a certain “load” to stimulate the bone-building cells.

Since there are no medications, there are no side effects, nor guessing if you missed a dose or lost it.

Each session is directed by accredited, certified Medical Exercise Specialist continuously supervising you on our patented, revolutionary medical-grade equipment. Your results are reviewed after each session and are also emailed to you.

As with any professional, accredited medical exercise service, you would expect the most up-to-date research, science, technology, and professional, well-educated, caring staff which know how to guide you to optimal results. SuperSlow Zone Strong Bone Program has this, and more.
