Lose strength, move less, lose confidence, go out less.

It's a cycle that can quietly shrink your world as you age, and over time it affects both body and brain.

In our latest article, we compare healthy ageing to a car. Your muscles, bones and heart are the motor. Your brain is the driver. You need both working well to get where you want to go.

Staying physically strong and steady helps keep you doing the things that keep life full: walking, gardening, travelling, time with the grandkids and catching up with friends. And every one of those keeps your brain engaged with the world.

Build the motor. Look after the driver.

In 2023, Australians sustained more than 193,000 fractures linked to poor bone health. That's one every 2.7 minutes.

Yet 71% of Australian women aged 50 to 65 believe they're already doing enough to look after their long-term health.

Walking, eating well and staying active all matter. But bone responds to load, and everyday movement may not give your skeleton the signal it needs to get stronger.

That's where OsteoStrong comes in. One session a week on our Spectrum Systems applies a safe, precise load to support your body's natural ability to build stronger bones, alongside balance and posture training.

With World Osteoporosis Day on 20 October, it's the perfect time to ask yourself honestly: is what you're doing enough?

We love sharing these incredible stories from OsteoStrong members rebuilding their bone density and improving their lives, all around the world! This time from our sister centre OsteoStrong Tunbridge Wells in the UK.

Here is an incredible story shared by one of our members: ✨

“When I was 16, a virus put me in hospital for six weeks and destroyed the cartilage in my right hip. I had to learn to walk again and was left with a limp and constant pain. I managed to stay active with swimming and cycling, but by 30 I needed my first hip replacement, followed by a revision at 40. Then at 52, I stepped in a pothole and broke the stem of the replacement out of the bone. That left my leg shorter, weak, and reliant on a walking stick.
Over the years I’ve broken a lot of bones, 10 fractures, plus another 3 in my spine. After fracturing my T7 and L3 vertebrae just doing simple household chores, I was diagnosed with osteoporosis.
One night at 2AM, sitting awake in severe pain, I saw a Facebook ad for OsteoStrong and left a message. Ryan called me the next day to book me in.
Just two months later, I’m waking up looking forward to the day! I was previously terrified that any movement would break another bone, but now I’ve cut my pain killers right down and am walking faster and further than I have in two years.
Best of all, I can actually look after my first grandchild now! Before, I could only hold her if someone placed her in my arms while I sat down. As my balance and strength improve, I’ll even be able to help out with my daughter’s horses again. I have my confidence back, feel so much better, and finally have real hope for my bones. Thank you to everyone at OsteoStrong!”

Thank you Sue for sharing your story 💛

Another incredible member success story, from the team at OsteoStrong Balgowlah.

World Osteoporosis Day | 20 October

Bones don't last a lifetime on their own. As we age, they naturally lose density, and 1 in 2 Australian women and 1 in 3 Australian men will have at least one osteoporotic fracture in their lifetime.

The good news is that bone is living tissue, and it responds to the right kind of load.

At OsteoStrong, one session a week on our Spectrum Systems offers a natural, drug-free way to build strength, balance and confidence at any age. Every session is supervised by a specialised coach and tailored to you.

This World Osteoporosis Day, let's choose to take charge of our bone health before a fracture makes the choice for us. Every body deserves to feel strong.

Another incredible member success story to share! This time from OsteoStrong Balgowlah. send Liz and the team some 💛💛💛

Kate's latest DEXA scan came back with a 3% increase in bone density in her spine and 1.8% in her hips.

What she talks about, though, is what those numbers feel like day to day. Lifting her grandkids without thinking twice about it. Feeling steadier on her feet. The quiet confidence that comes from knowing your body can handle what you ask of it.

And she has enjoyed the process along the way, which is the part most people do not expect.

Thank you for sharing your story, Kate.

A big shout out for our longest serving member Jeanette!

Jeanette has been with us for 7 years this week. We have watched her go from strength to strength.

Jeanette you deserve a huge pat on the back for prioritising your health 👏👏👏

A message from Jeanette….

Who would have thought that overhearing conversations between Vicky, Paul and my late husband Steve seven years ago would have such a positive impact on my life.

After breast cancer treatment and ongoing medication, my health was at an all-time low. I was dealing with osteoporosis, lymphoedema, constant pain and frequent bronchitis, and everyday tasks had become difficult.

Joining OsteoStrong in May 2019 changed my life. Within just six weeks, I was walking without pain, my strength improved significantly, and many of my ongoing health issues began to stabilise. Even my bone density improved despite expectations it would decline further due to medication.

OS has become a very important part of my life — not only for the physical benefits, but for the encouragement, care and support from the team. Vicky, Paul and everyone there genuinely listen and want to help.

Thank you for the positive impact you continue to have on so many people’s lives, including mine.

Big news from right here in Adelaide 🇦🇺
A new systematic review and meta-analysis from Flinders University has delivered powerful insights into the future of bone health assessment.
📊 What did the research find? Across 17 studies and over 8,000 participants, researchers found that REMS (radiofrequency echographic multi-spectrometry) shows a strong correlation with DXA, the current gold standard for measuring bone mineral density.
✔️ Femoral neck: r = 0.819✔️ Lumbar spine: r = 0.769
👉 Translation: REMS aligns closely with DXA results while offering some unique advantages.
💡 Why this matters:• REMS is radiation-free• It’s portable and more accessible• It has potential for community-based screening• Provide additional insights into bone quality, not just density
With osteoporosis often called the “silent disease,” earlier and more accessible detection could be a game changer for prevention and long-term health outcomes.
📍 Local access right here in Adelaide. You can now access REMS screening through Screen My Bones Australia📞 Book your screening: 0404 66 22 11
👏 Proud to see world-class research coming out of our local university—and even prouder to bring this innovation directly to our community.

The prestigious article “𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗥𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗼𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗘𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶-𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗿𝘆 (𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗦) 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝘂𝗮𝗹-𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗫-𝗿𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗿𝘆 (𝗗𝗫𝗔): 𝗔 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗮-𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀” by Ryan Yan Liu and Enwu Liu very recently published on Bone Journal aimed to systematically review and meta-analyze the correlation between REMS and DXA at the femoral neck and lumbar spine.
