Bone strength and density are vital in your running and sporting patients who can experience bone stress injuries (BSI’s), and also as patients get older and more vulnerable to falls and fractures.
How can you improve bone strength in patients following a bone stress injury such as Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome or stress fractures, or in other patients that you’d like to improve bone density or strength?
Traditional approaches to strength and conditioning may not always address the needs of your patients recovering from bone stress injuries. That’s where bone loading programs come in—a targeted strategy to help prepare bones for impact, improve power, and support a return to sport.
In this episode, Tom Goom (Running Physio) dives into the research and how to use a bone loading program to stimulate bone adaptation.
