Our Approach to Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis — characterised by low bone density and increased fracture risk — affects over one million Australians, with post-menopausal women at highest risk. While osteoporosis is managed medically with medication and calcium and vitamin D supplementation, the evidence for specific types of exercise in maintaining and improving bone density, reducing fall risk, and preventing fractures is strong and well-established.
At Pro Health Clinic, osteoporosis management centres on safe, evidence-based exercise prescription — including weight-bearing, resistance, and balance training adapted to each patient's bone density level and physical capacity. We work closely with GPs and endocrinologists to ensure a coordinated, medically appropriate approach to each patient's bone health.
What We Treat
- Weight-bearing exercise for bone density preservation
- Progressive resistance training for osteoporosis
- Fall prevention and balance training
- Postural correction to reduce vertebral fracture risk
- Safe exercise program design for fragile bone
- Coordination with GP and endocrinologist care teams
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Osteoporosis management at Pro Health Clinic begins with a review of your bone density reports, fracture history, and current medications, followed by a movement and balance assessment. Your practitioner will design a program that is both effective for bone health and safe given your current bone density level.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pro Health Clinic from Homebush West?
Pro Health Clinic is approximately 3.5km from Homebush West — a 10-minute drive via Parramatta Road, or accessible by bus along Parramatta Road to Ashfield.
Do you treat Homebush West patients?
Yes — we regularly treat patients from Homebush West for all our services including chiropractic, physiotherapy, remedial massage, and exercise rehabilitation.
Is it safe to exercise with osteoporosis near Homebush West?
Yes — exercise is essential for osteoporosis management, but the type and intensity of exercise matters. Some exercises carry elevated fracture risk and should be avoided or modified. A qualified practitioner will design a program that is effective for bone density while being safe for your specific level of fragility.
Can exercise increase bone density near Homebush West?
Specific forms of exercise — particularly impact loading and progressive resistance training — can modestly increase bone density and significantly reduce fracture risk by improving strength and balance. The bone response is site-specific: exercises load the bones in the areas trained.
What exercises should I avoid with osteoporosis near Homebush West?
High-impact activities that risk falling and exercises that place significant flexion load on the spine (such as crunches or forward bending with load) carry elevated fracture risk in osteoporosis. Your practitioner will advise on safe modifications and alternatives tailored to your bone density level.
