Episode 3: Yoga for Osteoporosis with Dr. Loren Fishman

I’m thrilled to share this interview I had with an extraordinary guest and my mentor, Dr. Loren Fishman. Dr. Fishman is a specialist in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, specifically focusing on treating musculoskeletal disorders. He has written 12 books, over 100 peer-reviewed articles, and some on yoga and its therapeutic benefits, including “Yoga for Osteoporosis.” His ongoing study, 12 Poses vs. Osteoporosis, has proven that yoga can increase bone density. In our discussion today, we delve into osteoporosis, a condition that affects millions of people worldwide and can lead to debilitating fractures. We discussed yoga’s role in increasing bone density and building strength, balance, and posture. Dr. Fishman shared the latest scientific findings that support natural approaches to bone health and how we can use yoga to reduce our risk of fractures and achieve a good quality of life as we age.

Reversing Osteoporosis – is it Possible?

We touched on the topic of medications for osteoporosis and the benefits and drawbacks of these treatments, and the importance of spinal health for overall bone health. We discussed reversing osteoporosis where Dr. Fishman discusses his success with many, many patients who have seen a drop in their dexascan scores. Dr. Fishman shares his vast knowledge and expertise on these subjects, providing valuable insights and tips for anyone looking to improve their bone health and naturally reduce the risk of fractures. Dr. Loren Fishman has been in practice for almost 50 years and has helped over 10,000 women take charge of how they age. It was a privilege to interview him, and I’m so happy to share this with you. So sit back, relax, and prepare to learn from one of the foremost experts in Physical Medicine, Rehabilitation, and bone and joint health. Thank you for tuning in!
