The Honest Truth

If you have osteoporosis, you are facing a scary set of risks that could result in a crippling bone fracture, hospitalization and for some, limited recovery or worse. The traditional approach from doctors supported by the pharmaceutical industry proposes managing that risk with medication as the only real option. It is not. There are other options that include medical exercise as a complete solution, and if you prefer, you can combine this with medication. It is about what is right for you. You are in the right place to do investigating online or perhaps with friends.

A Stand for Your Health – Self-Advocacy

Our world has really changed. The increased challenges to our health have compelled an even greater responsibility for each of us to take care of ourselves – and this is never going away. Broadening your understanding of medical options for the treatment of Osteopenia/Osteoporosis is imperative for your health and your families well-being. You need to become your own provider of a second opinion.

Options for Treating Osteoporosis

Do nothing – “If I’m not hurting, why do I need treatment at all?”
Medication – traditional drugs prescribed by your physician
Medical Exercise – focused outcome specialty exercise treatment

Doing nothing is a very deceiving choice because it is allowing the disease to progress quicker. So, first and foremost, doing nothing is not a viable option.

Medication as treatment has been a blessing for some women. Many women have questions when they are offered medication as treatment, such as: How invasive are the side effects? What type of chance is there for getting a life-threatening outcome like esophageal cancer or? How will I deal with the side effects? What happens if I must stop taking the medications? What happens if I miss a dose?

Medical Exercise for osteoporosis is not standard exercise activity. It is a proven treatment specifically designed to build bone density.

Medication Option: Medication (Possible Side Effects and Anxiety)

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

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, many women may feel anxiety around adding more pills and managing them into their daily lives.

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 Option: What Is It?

Focused medical exercise for osteoporosis (and osteopenia) utilizes well-known scientific principles to engage the body’s natural bone growth mechanisms to build bone density. Leveraging incredibly sophisticated equipment, with continuous expert supervision by our certified Specialist, the treatment simplifies exercise movements for optimal loading, creating the desired effect. This is called osteogenic loading. There are no medications, there are no side effects.

Why Consider Strong Bone Health Medical Exercise Now?

It is never too late to start:

Is this service available in Houston?

Yes. The business is called SuperSlow Zone. They have two locations, and one of the reasons we like them so much is because they are rated by the government as an essential medical service. As one, they are forced to a much higher level of compliance against Covid than a gym.

Does SuperSlow Zone’s Strong Bone Health Work?

SSZ Client Keri:
“Well, I had just been diagnosed with a horrible case of osteoporosis. Living with osteoporosis and osteopenia, and not getting any improvements, are my big concerns. But after a year with my Strong Bone Health program, all of my numbers have improved. So I’m very pleased, and my doctor was very pleased. In fact, for the first time in three years, he didn’t even talk about putting me on medicine.”

SSZ Client Lessie:
“I was diagnosed with osteoporosis and was looking for a non-medicine solution. As you probably know, the osteoporosis medicines are terrible. I had seen the advertisement for SuperSlow Zone in a local magazine. I went to the website, did a little more research and decided to give it a try. Very pleased with my results.”

But What Do Real Doctors Think?
“Using optimal biomechanics and loading bones through compression, osteogenic loading response (bone growth) is stimulated and ultimately improves. My patients are in control during the entire session and are never forced to strain – it is at their pace, and comfort level. I have seen my patients improve bone density over 8% in one year, which is a gain that is unparalleled with any other modality used in clinical practice today.”

“Patients see the documented benefits of osteogenic loading on their bioDensity performance reports which enhances compliance. Patients enjoy coming back every week for the osteogenic loading experience, which is fast, safe, and convenient, but most of all they know they are improving their bone health, and general health without the concerns of pharmacological side effects.”

“The real-world musculoskeletal benefits of the bioDensity device and osteogenic loading on strength, coordination, balance and subsequently confidence are nothing short of astonishing. The drug-free, osteogenic loading bone density benefits are unique to the bioDensity device. As a surgeon, I foresee the bioDensity device improving my patient’s quality of life drastically.”
