Understanding Osteoporosis (4 hrs)
Understanding Osteoporosis
6 Hours CE/CPD | Online Course with Ke Wynn Lee
Osteoporosis is often described as a condition of “weak bones,” but for therapists and rehabilitation professionals, the real clinical picture is much broader. Bone health, strength, posture, balance, movement confidence, fall risk and long-term independence are all deeply connected.
Understanding Osteoporosis is a practical, professionally presented online CE/CPD course designed to help therapists better understand osteoporosis from a modern rehabilitation and healthy-aging perspective.
Presented by Ke Wynn Lee, this course explores how osteoporosis affects the body, why movement and loading matter, and how professionals can support safer, more confident function in clients living with reduced bone density, fracture risk or aging-related physical decline.
This course moves beyond fear-based thinking and helps learners understand osteoporosis through the lens of resilience, movement confidence, fall prevention and long-term functional independence.
Course Overview
This course provides a clear and practical introduction to osteoporosis, including how bone changes with age, why fractures occur, and how exercise, strength, balance, posture and education all contribute to better long-term outcomes.
Rather than simply warning clients to “be careful,” this course supports a more useful professional approach: helping people move more safely, build strength progressively, improve confidence and reduce avoidable fall risk.
Understand how bone changes over time and why osteoporosis develops.
Explore why appropriate mechanical loading matters for skeletal resilience.
Learn why fall prevention is central to osteoporosis management.
Support safer movement, independence and healthy aging.
