Biodensity is a form of high-intensity, low-impact strength training that uses short, maximal effort exercises to stimulate muscle growth and increase bone density. It’s especially useful for people looking to improve musculoskeletal health, including older adults or those with conditions like osteoporosis.

Description text goes hereBiodensity aims to create a safe, efficient workout that provides the same (or better) benefits as traditional resistance training but in much less time.

• Specialized Equipment: Biodensity uses a machine that provides resistance matched to your strength in real-time, without weights.

• Short Duration, Max Effort: You perform each exercise for only about 30–60 seconds, but you push with maximum effort.

• No Impact: Unlike running or jumping, there’s no pounding on the joints.

• Bone Health: The stress applied during exercises stimulates bone growth, which can help improve or maintain bone density.

• Muscle Building: It also helps in building muscle mass due to the high-intensity exertion.

Biodensity training can help address or improve the following conditions and concerns:

• Osteoporosis and osteopenia (by increasing bone density)

• Sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss)

• Balance issues and fall prevention

• Joint instability and weakness

• Posture problems

• Chronic back pain

• Reduced mobility or range of motion

• Arthritis-related discomfort (by strengthening surrounding muscles)

• Diabetes management (via improved insulin sensitivity)

• Heart health (indirectly, by improving strength and overall fitness)

• Rehabilitation after injury (with guidance, due to its low-impact nature)

Biodensity is a great fit for anyone who wants to build strength, support bone health, or improve fitness efficiently and safely. In particular;

• Older adults – to combat bone and muscle loss, reduce fall risk, and support independence

• People with osteoporosis or osteopenia – to safely stimulate bone growth

• Busy professionals – since sessions are short (often under 15-20 minutes once a week)

• Rehabilitation patients – especially those recovering from injuries, due to its low-impact nature

• Those with joint issues or arthritis – it avoids impact and uses controlled resistance

• Anyone new to exercise – it’s supervised and scalable to individual strength levels

• Athletes and fitness enthusiasts – to supplement traditional training with safe max-effort resistance

• People with diabetes or metabolic concerns – strength training can improve blood sugar regulation

• Post-menopausal women – due to increased risk of bone density loss

A typical biodensity appointment lasts about 15 - 20 minutes.

Here’s what that usually includes:

• Initial warm-up or orientation (if needed)

• Biodensity machine session: 4 key exercises (push, pull, legs, and core), each lasting 30–60 seconds

• Cooldown and/or tracking results: a few minutes to review progress and metrics

Most people start seeing and feeling results within 4 to 6 weeks, especially if you’re consistent with weekly sessions, although results may vary, and continued maintenance sessions are recommended.

After each session, you’ll review a digital record showing:

• Peak force for each exercise

• Change from previous sessions

• Graphs of your strength curve

Biodensity treatments are super trackable and goal-oriented — even tiny strength improvements week to week show up clearly.

One session per week is recommended.

While you will likely see results in 4-6 weeks, this something that you will want to maintain long-term. Biodensity is not a “do it for a few months and stop” kind of thing — bone and muscle health decline again if stimulus is removed. But! It’s time-efficient and sustainable, so it works as a lifelong maintenance tool.

To maintain bone density and muscle strength, it is recommended to continue once every 1–2 weeks.

Biodensity therapy is generally not covered by standard health insurance plans. If you would like us to check for you, please contact us at 310-318-3655.
