Bone health can decline with age but osteoporosis isn’t inevitable. And if it does occur, medications aren’t the only option.

If you’re concerned about bone health, supplements can be the first option that comes to mind. Many bone health supplements contain key minerals that are important for bone health but it’s only part of the story.

Supporting your bone health requires a whole-body approach to optimizing health and wellbeing.

Bone health can be affected by a wide range of factors, including nutrition, gut health, nutrient absorption, mineral status, stress levels, lifestyle, environmental factors, and genetics. Knowing which of these is relevant for you gives you the best chance of maintaining good bone health.

The conventional medicine approach to bone health uses medications, many of which can have side effects. We take a very different route to better bone health.

The functional medicine approach looks at the whole body so that systems can be balanced. We can create a personalized action plan that resolves factors that can be a significant factor in bone health. Crucially, we can uncover the factors that are affecting your bone health, which is highly specific to you. ‘

We can work with primary care physicians and doctors where needed to introduce a holistic approach to bone health. Rather than medications, we use personalized nutrition, supplements, and herbs.

It’s root cause medicine that gets to the heart of why bone health can deteriorate so that we can look to prevent future loss of bone density or stop the rate of progression if bone density has started to decrease.
