What to Expect

  • Join us to gain an understanding of bones and factors that affect your bone health.

    Bones are not hard and lifeless, they are actually living, growing tissue. Bones give our bodies support and protect our organs, allowing us to use our muscles to move.

  • Maintain bone health as you age and know your fall risks.

    Learn habits and tips that are vital including how nutrition and physical activity affect your bone health.

    Hear about physical therapy and exercise interventions for maintaining healthy bones and reducing fall risk.

  • Learn more about the BROC Healthy Bone Program.

    This is a multidisciplinary approach to managing bone loss and fractures and reducing fracture risk.

    Patients with bone disorders can find alternative, less invasive treatments and hopefully prevent injuries.
