Physiotherapy and exercise in osteoporosis and its complications
Zeitschrift für Rheumatologie, 08/17/09
Preisinger E – The aim of osteoporosis treatment is to prevent fractures by bone strengthening. The aims of rehabilitation in patients with osteoporosis are to reduce pain, maximize the level of musculoskeletal function, particularly following fractures, decrease risk of falls and optimize quality of life and independence. Certain sports and exercises greatly promote skeletal development in children and adolescents and augment bone strength in adults. Physiotherapy and therapeutic exercise may relieve pain, increase musculoskeletal function and form an important part of fall management.
