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 Stanmore?
Pro Health Clinic is approximately 3.5km from Stanmore — three T2 train stops from Stanmore Station to Ashfield (about 8 minutes), or a 10-minute drive along Parramatta Road.
Do you see patients from Stanmore?
Yes — Stanmore is well within our Inner West service area. Patients from Stanmore access our clinic for chiropractic, physiotherapy, remedial massage, and sports injury rehabilitation.
Is it safe to exercise with osteoporosis near Stanmore?
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 Stanmore?
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 Stanmore?
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.
