Osteoporosis
Start managing your Osteoporosis long-term with Mends’ specialised three step Method.
As you move through the steps, from treatment of your symptoms, to diagnosis and addressing underlying causes, and finally to establishing a prevention plan, all of which will help relieve pain, improve movement and correct dysfunction, long-term.
Three Steps to Recovery
Treat Symptoms.
We understand how the effects of Osteoporosis can impact our lives. So our first goal is to always relieve any of your primary symptoms developed over time.
Our therapists will use the latest and best assessment and treatment techniques to treat your symptoms quickly and effectively.
2. Identify underlying causes.
Often the underlying cause or causes of your condition are not adequately identified- and so can not be addressed. In this scenario it is not long before the symptoms progress or return. This is arguably the hardest and most important step- one which Mend therapists specialise in.
3. Long-term Prevention.
Pain or stiffness not being present only signifies you are under the pain threshold. To undo years of poor posture, weakness and stiffness Mend will set you up with an individualised, integrated and progressive strengthening programs effectively breaking the cycle of pain..
What’s next?
Once treatment has started and any pain and dysfunction under control, the next stage in treatment begins. Since evidence overwhelming confirms that training is the best long-term treatment for Osteoporosis, our Mend Health Specialist will assess and then prescribe an individualised and progressive training program to suit your specific needs.
