Osteoporosis with Kelly Lockwood PT, DPT

RRH Wellness Wednesdays feature Rochester Regional clinicians and experts sharing their experiences and knowledge in an effort to improve your health and wellness, and to help connect you with specialists when you’re interested in individualized care. Check each week for the new topic!

Please join us for our monthly physical therapy expert series with Kelly Lockwood PT, DPT. Osteoporosis can be a silent disease that weaknes your bones. Often older folks do not even know they have osteoporosis until they have a fall and end up with a fractured bone, ouch! Hips, wrists and vertebrae are common fractures among older adults.

Kelly will give an over-view on osteoporosis, discuss who is at risk and/or risk factors for this disease. She will give some tools and exercises that are beneficial to reduce risk of injury when exercising. She will also discuss exercises for flexibility, as well as conditioning/strengthening, including the core and postural muscles. Please join us to learn more!

We’d love to hear from you! Send your comments, suggestions, and questions to [email protected]
