During and after menopause, bone density and strength is more important than ever. Bone loading exercise is the best way to improve bone health and decrease the risk of osteoporotic fractures. Balance, proprioception, and coordination training is also very important during this time. Expertly prescribed exercise by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist at Seed can strengthen and load bones safely and effectively, to drastically reduce the risk of fractures, falls, and injuries.
