200. Osteoporosis, Fracture, & Fall Prevention With Patrick Donovan, PT, DPT
According to the CDC, 51.5% of women over 50 have low bone mass. This statistic blew our mind! Without proper treatment, this can develop into osteoporosis and greatly impact your fracture risk, mobility, and quality of life. Unless you get a DEXA scan, it’s hard to know if you have low bone mass. Maintaining your strength and balance can be the difference between living independently or in an assisted living facility…or between an assisted living facility and long-term care. So those who want to maintain their mobility and independence as long as possible need to be vigilant about lifestyle choices that promote good bone health. Join us for this informative interview about how to prevent and treat low bone mass to reduce your risk of fractures and osteoporosis with Patrick Donovan, PT, DPT who works in geriatric outpatient orthopedics in Denver, Colorado.Subscribe & ReviewSubscribing and leaving a rating and review are important factors in helping the Reshape Your Health Podcast and the YouTube Channel reach more people.
