Frequently Asked Questions

DO I NEED TO SCHEDULE?

Yes, we schedule appointments every 15 minutes, limiting the number of people in the center at any time.  There is always a highly trained, certified session coach with you throughout your osteogenic loading session. 

IS IT SAFE TO DO OSTEOSTRONG SESSIONS IF I HAVE OSTEOPOROSIS?

Yes, many people with T-scores as low as -4 from their DXA scans do sessions at OsteoStrong. Even in these extreme cases, members have completely reversed their osteoporosis without medication. As with all medical conditions, we encourage people to consult with their physician prior to starting sessions at OsteoStrong.  

DOES OSTEOSTRONG DO ANYTHING FOR WEIGHT LOSS?

The primary engine of calorie burning is muscles, and at OsteoStrong we trigger tissue growth in the muscle fiber. With new tissue, people process glucose better and burn more calories. But diet is the heart of weight loss, being responsible for about 90% of weight loss. We can help improve the engines that help the body burn more calories and process glucose a little better. True weight loss is going to come from improving your diet.  

DOES HEALTH INSURANCE COVER OSTEOSTRONG?

Traditional health insurance in the United States does not cover OsteoStrong sessions. However, flexible spending accounts and health savings accounts can be used in most cases.   

HOW LONG UNTIL I START FEELING THE RESULTS?

Results vary from person to person, but the following are some general rules for what our members experience:


  • Joint and back pain. Generally, people experience a sensation of joint and back pain relief in 1 to 12 sessions. Of course, with any physical condition that causes you concern, we recommend that you ask your doctor prior to engaging in sessions at OsteoStrong.  Once your pain is gone, regular sessions will continue to develop the joint, bone and surrounding support tissue. It is highly recommended that you continue sessions to help prevent the return of your joint and back pain.


  • Skeletal strength or bone density increases can only be seen on a bone density scan. It usually takes 6-12 months from the time you start with OsteoStrong® for your DXA scan to show increases in bone density. In some cases, it may take longer depending on the person.


  • Balance improvements. Most people notice improvements in their personal balance in just one to two sessions and it generally continues to improve over time.


  • Muscular Strength. Most people, regardless of fitness level, feel the gains in overall strength in about 4 sessions. Regular sessions show continued strength gains for many years. Some people may have periods of plateauing in their measured strength gains. Have patience when this happens to you!
