Bone Health and Osteoporosis Prevention with DEXA Scans

Nov 5, 2024

Bone health is essential for a long, active life, especially in Sarasota’s fitness-focused environment. Our DEXA scans(Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) are part of our comprehensive annual physical, designed to measure bone density and detect early signs of osteoporosis or bone loss.

Osteoporosis often progresses silently, so regular bone density scans are crucial for preventing fractures and maintaining mobility. If our DEXA scan reveals low bone density, we can tailor a treatment plan that includes diet, supplements, and weight-bearing exercises to improve bone strength and protect your independence.
