Safe Exercises for Osteoporosis – Hamilton Physiotherapist Tips

Osteoporosis affects millions of Canadians, especially seniors. At Gage Physio, part of the Get Moving Clinics network, we help Hamilton residents strengthen their bones and improve mobility through safe, targeted physiotherapy.

Why Exercise Matters for Osteoporosis

Regular movement helps:

    • Increase bone density

    • Improve balance and coordination

    • Reduce the risk of fractures

    • Enhance overall quality of life

Top 5 Safe Exercises for Bone Health

    1. Weight-Bearing Activities
      Walking, stair climbing, and dancing stimulate bone growth.

    1. Resistance Training
      Light weights or resistance bands help build muscle and bone strength.

    1. Balance Exercises
      Tai chi, single-leg stands, and heel-to-toe walking reduce fall risk.

    1. Postural Training
      Strengthening the back and core improves alignment and reduces spinal fractures.

    1. Stretching & Mobility Work
      Gentle stretches maintain flexibility and joint health.
