When your body has already been through cancer, 'just go to the gym' is not an answer. You need a plan that respects where you are.

Before OsteoStrong

Beverly is an Austin woman and a cancer survivor. Cancer treatment is hard on bones, and she was told she had osteopenia.

The diagnosis, and what it felt like

When you've already beaten cancer, being told your bones are thinning feels like the next fight you didn't sign up for. Beverly decided she wasn't going to wait for a fracture.

What she tried — and why she chose OsteoStrong

She saw OsteoStrong on Instagram, thought it was worth trying, and gave it a real commitment — not a month, long enough to tell whether it was actually working.

Why OsteoStrong can say what we say.

OsteoStrong works on your balance and grip, not just your bone strength — which is exactly what a cancer survivor with osteopenia needs.

The plan she followed

  1. Book a free Bone Health Roadmap Call. Fifteen minutes by phone or Zoom. We read your DEXA with you and listen. No pressure.
  2. Come in for a guided first session. A certified coach walks you through four supported devices in street clothes. Never rushed, never unsafe.
  3. Track your force output week after week. Fifteen minutes, once a week. Your numbers rise. Your balance returns. Your next DEXA tells the real story.

The weekly rhythm

August 2024 to now. Over a year of consistent weekly sessions, with balance and grip work built into every visit.

The outcome

Her strength has increased. Her balance has increased. Her grip has improved. She's almost fallen 'several times' and caught herself each time.

Hear it in her words.

Hello, I'm Beverly Newsom, and I want to share my experience here at OsteoStrong. I started back in August of 2024. I was diagnosed with osteopenia. I'm a cancer survivor, so that affects your bones. I thought I'd give this a try. I saw it on Instagram, and I've been very pleased. It's been over a year. My strength has increased, balance has increased. I've almost fallen several times and caught myself. OsteoStrong works on your balance, not just your bone strength. Also the grip: my grip has improved, which decreases as you age. So I can definitely recommend OsteoStrong to anyone that is going through menopause, or maybe premenopause or perimenopause. So that's my story.

“My strength has increased, balance has increased. I've almost fallen several times and caught myself. My grip has improved too.”

What was at stake if she hadn't acted.

What doing nothing looked like
  • Cancer survivorship plus untreated osteopenia becoming a fracture waiting to happen
  • Avoiding stairs, curbs, and uneven ground because her feet no longer felt trustworthy
  • Losing the grip strength that carries groceries, grandkids, and independence
