Osteoporosis is a disease of the bone in which you lose too much bone as you age, making your bones more porous than they should be, and weakening their underlying structure. The more porous your bones become, the more likely they are to break.
If you are over the age of 50 and are treated for a fracture known to be indicative of osteoporosis, your physician may refer you for a Bone Health consultation. During your bone health consultation a provider will work with you to:
- Educate you on osteoporosis and why you are considered at risk.
- Evaluate your specific case with a detailed history, physical, and referral for any additional testing necessary.
- Establish a treatment plan, which might include lifestyle changes and medication to prevent further bone loss or even rebuild bone.
If you are over the age of 50 and experience one of the following types of fractures, you should be screened for osteoporosis:
- Wrist (Distal Radius) Fracture
- Spine (Vertebral) Fracture
- Hip Fracture
- Shoulder (Proximal Humerus) Fracture
That’s why TSAOG Orthopaedics & Spine created the Bone Health Program. Nationally Recognized Expertise in Preventing Fractures.

Trauma results from an event, series of events, or set of circumstances experienced by a child as physically or emotionally harmful. Trauma has lasting effects on the child's body, brain, behavior, and belief system. Examples include abuse, neglect, maternal drug use and violence in home.
Trauma training gives caregivers an understanding of the why behind the behavior and strategies to disarm the fear-based actions through utilizing practical tools to help children heal.
Who Should Take This Training? Everyone! Parents, teachers, childcare providers, counselors, babysitters or any caregiver who works and/or interacts with children will benefit from this training.
Our Hope Is That The Time Spent Exploring The Needs of Wounded Children Will Lead To RESTORATION Of DIGNITY And HOPE In Their Lives.
Click here for more information.
We Also Offer Trauma Training Specifically For Church Children’s Ministries.
Every parent and child deserves a chance to worship. Learn the effects of trauma on behavior and receive immediately applicable tools so that churches can make a real difference in the lives of children and their families! It is free for alliance supported churches.
