Can you have have the spine of a 70-year-old when
you feel like a healthy 55-year-old? The answer
is YES. Women, especially around the age of 50,
can experience loss of bone density after
reaching menopause. To truly understand aging
and disease, we have to drill down into the
disease. Osteoporosis is commonly
hormone-mediated, and frequently in conjunction
with declining estrogen levels. Specifically,
bone destruction, which is a normal metabolic
process, begins to occur more rapidly than bone
rebuilding.This process is regulated in part by
estrogen, which, along with vitamin D and other
nutrients, plays an important role in calcium
uptake into bone.

You can see in this broad understanding of
osteoporosis, that it is actually the product of
an imbalanced hormonal system. It's an outward
manifestation of a deeper problem with the brain,
which produces or regulates about 90 of our
hormones. At PATH Medical, we look at all organ
systems with diagnostic tests to detect problems
with Bone Density, Brain Function, Hormone
Imbalances, Kidney Health, Heart Health, etc.
Then we treat you with a whole-body approach.
