YOGA FOR BONE HEALTH
(WITH DIANE)
Approximately 10 million Americans age 50+ have osteoporosis and are at risk for breaking bones.
Studies have proven that yoga has the power to protect us from fractures by building bone mass/density.
​
YOGA'S BENEFITS HAVE POWER THAT NO MEDICATION CAN DUPLICATE.
Unlike medications prescribed for osteopenia and osteoporosis, yoga has no negative side effects.
In fact, it has added benefits, like reduced stress/cortisol.

DR. LOREN FISHMAN'S METHOD
"Yoga and medicine, used both separately and together, have tremendous healing benefits for patients, and can minimize pain and disability."
I've had the privilege of being formally trained in Dr. Fishman's Yoga for Bone Health method. The 12 poses in this method work on the hip, the spine and the neck of the femur to create more bone mass.
