@zhaner, i’m wondering why it is only recommended for osteopenia? Wouldn’t it still be effective for osteoporosis but maybe on a lesser level?

1 ReactionI don’t know but I am guessing that the research show improvement for osteopenia but not for osteoporosis. However, I didn’t read their research—maybe they didn’t test on those with osteoporosis.
@izziesue, I believe it is because their research used subjects with osteopenia so that is the only claim they can make.
I have had an Osteoboost belt since late May. Just had to send it back for a repair and will be without it for a few weeks 🙁 It’s easy to use. Can’t comment on results yet. Have a DXA in December.
I believe the study of the Osteoboost was on women with osteopenia, not osteoporosis. I ordered the osteoboost late last year and did not get the device until mid-August. I've been using it about 5 days a week and received my latest DEXA earlier this month. I have osteoporosis in my lumbar spine and osteopenia in my hips. My DEXA. T scores were as follows: March 2023 October 2025
Lumbar Spine -3.6 -4.0
Femoral Neck L -2.4 -2.1
Total Hip L -2.0 -1.6
So after about 2 months of wearing Osteoboost, a slight improvement in the osteopenia in my hips and my osteoporosis in my spine is slightly worse. I have also been spending time over the past two years focusing on weight training, so I can't attribute this decrease totally to Osteoboost. I'm interested to see what the long term use of Osteoboost will affect these numbers.

4 Reactions@zhaner When did that person order? I ordered in December 2024 (prescription was confirmed received in early January 2025) and I have not yet received the device. I am curious about others' experiences.
@zhaner They have had my money since December 2024 and my prescription since January 13, 2025 and I am also being told I may receive it by end of November. I have received 3 rounds of "updates" (June, August, October) and still no confirmation that it has shipped.
