Welcome to HELIX Performance Physical Therapy
Are you navigating the challenges of osteoporosis or osteopenia and seeking a path to greater strength and vitality? At HELIX Performance Physical Therapy in Danville, CA, we specialize in empowering individuals like you to build resilient bones and lead an active life.
Why Bone Health Matters
Bones need exercise to remain strong and healthy. According to Professor Belinda Beck, Director of The Bone Clinic, “When it comes to bones we know exercise can benefit people throughout their life – by growing bigger stronger bones in childhood, improving bones throughout adulthood, and preventing falls that can lead to fracture as we age.” However, not all exercises are created equal. Research shows that only specific types of exercise can effectively improve bone health.
Onero™ – The Osteoporosis Exercise Solution
What is Onero™?
Onero™ is an evidence-based osteoporosis treatment program specifically designed to prevent osteoporotic fractures by stimulating bone development and preventing falls in at-risk individuals.
“Just by chance I came by an article on The Bone Clinic and the wonderful news that women are increasing their bone density. I came in for an appointment and have been coming for 12 months. I’ve regained muscle, strength and balance. It has given me a new lease of life. My bone density improved by 5% in the spine and 8% in my hip!”
– Stephanie F
