Osteoporosis

"My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Scott and Dr. Leah Hahn at Body in Balance since February 2008. I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis and have been on medication to deal with it for 9 years. I have had only mild improvement with the medication. In April of 2008 my physician determined that I would have a drug holiday and took me off the medication per his concerns regarding side effects and the minimal improvement I had experienced. I continued to take the same supplements including vitamin D and calcium and of course I exercise religiously. The only that changed in my regime is that we see Dr. Scott and Dr. Leah on a regular basis.

December is my anniversary to have a bone density test. To my physcian’s surprise and to my great joy the test revealed a giant leap in bone density in both my hips and spine. My spine is now at over 98% density with my hips moving out of the osteoporosis category, a huge improvement.

I have reviewed my situation and have come to the conclusion that working with Dr. Scott and Dr. Leah has largely contributed to the health of my bones. I feel blessed to be under their care.” - Jami U.
