Have You Scheduled Your Bone Density Screening Appointment?
Taking proactive steps now can help maintain good bone health!
Osteoporosis is a condition that weakens bones, making them more likely to break from minor falls or injuries. It has no warning signs, and most people only find out they have it after a fracture, often in the hip, arm, wrist, or spine. Talk to your healthcare provider about a bone density scan and how it can help improve your bone health.

Getting a bone density scan can help catch bone health issues early. Most people do not show warning signs of bone loss, making it more important to get screened and understand your bones’ health. With early treatment, you can keep your bones strong, prevent fractures, and improve health outcomes.
A bone density scan is a simple, safe, and painless test that checks the health of your bones. It’s similar to an X-ray and helps your healthcare provider see how strong your bones are and whether you’re at risk of osteoporosis. After the test, your provider can give you tips on how to keep your bones healthy and strong.
Regular check-ups can help catch health problems early.
