EMPOWERING BODIES AND DEFYING OSTEOPOROSIS
OsteoStrong® is a unique system for developing skeletal strength. The skeletal framework is arguably one of the most important systems in the human body and is widely recognized as a key component to longevity, health, and peak performance. OsteoStrong therapies use a scientifically proven process known as osteogenic loading, which positively impacts the health of the entire body. It aids not only in increasing bone density but also in improving muscular strength, balance, range of motion, endurance, posture, integrity of tendons and ligaments, and athletic performance while reducing joint and back pain and lowering blood glucose levels. Members often share inspiring stories of relief from many chronic conditions, such as fibromyalgia.
“My name is Tracy Williams. I am a co-owner of the first OsteoStrong in southern Utah. I learned of OsteoStrong after my own diagnosis of osteoporosis and my quest that followed to find a nonpharmaceutical and noninvasive approach to increasing bone density and likely reversing this condition. As the doctor delivered the news of the diagnosis, she strongly recommended that I stop riding horses. She said she could guarantee I would sustain a hip or back fracture if I were to fall. Riding horses was my passion, my life, my oxygen! This lifechanging diagnosis fueled my search for a solution, and since learning the statistics of this potentially life-threatening condition, fueled my desire to bring OsteoStrong to the southern Utah community, which has such a strong drive to be and stay active, healthy, and natural.”
With this wide-ranging list of benefits, one can see that OsteoStrong has great value for people of all ages, fitness levels, lifestyle goals, and/or athletic goals. The devices employed at OsteoStrong were originally created by the inventor to help his aging mother after her diagnosis of osteoporosis. The devastating impact of osteoporosis cannot be understated. Although statistics vary somewhat, according to the National Institute of Health:
• One in two women and one in five men will develop osteoporosis in their lifetime.
• One in three women and one in twelve men will endure an osteoporotic hip or femur fracture in their lifetime.
• For those over the age of fifty, the statistics of fatality (with usual care) within a year of a hip or femur fracture is between 14 percent and 58 percent, increasing each year by an estimated 4 percent.
• An estimated 70 percent of people with osteoporosis don’t know they have the condition.
• It is estimated that between 1990 and 2050, there will be an increase of hip and femur fractures of 240 percent for women and 315 percent for men.
Accordingly, people aware that they have osteopenia or osteoporosis often give up many of the activities they worked their entire lives to enjoy, and very often, they live in fear of falling. Embracing this innovative technology can empower individuals to take control of their bone health, leading to a better quality of life and greater independence in the face of osteoporosis.
Developed by biomedical engineer Dr. John Jaquish and his team, OsteoStrong employs osteogenic loading—a brief and safe application of force—to stimulate bone growth. The system entails performing a series of biomechanical exercises on specialized devices that provide controlled resistance to the musculoskeletal system in a once-a-week brief session monitored by certified coaches.
An international franchise with a ten-year history of improving skeletal health, OsteoStrong recently received the prestigious Health-100 award at the 2023 Changing Life & Destiny conference.

I AM HONORED AND VERY EXCITED TO BE INTRODUCING THIS GLOBAL COMPANY TO SOUTHERN UTAH. OVER THE LAST 2 YEARS, I HAVE HEARD NUMEROUS TESTIMONIALS OF THE LIFE CHANGING IMPACT THIS CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY HAS HAD ON THE LIVES OF MEMBERS. Tracy Williams Co-Owner OsteoStrong Red Rock Scan
