Give your bones a blast

Way down, deep in your marrow, you just want to have a blast once in a while, right? Actually, the root of this might begin in your bone marrow where cells called "osteoblasts" are the construction crew responsible for building up the matrix of your bone with fresh new materials. At least when all goes well, osteoblasts are busy building your bone. Unfortunately, injuries, poor posture, medications, lifestyle, and ageing can send a message to the osteoblast construction crew to take longer and longer breaks instead of doing their job, while the demolition crew, known as osteoclasts, picks up speed. When the demolition crew starts to work harder than the construction crew, the matrix is unable to stay healthy. In Bones for Life®, we use springy pressure through an aligned skeleton to remind osteoblasts of their job and of your intention to live your one great life with zest.  Watch this short video of Jeanne Hills of Phoenix, Arizona, as she talks about the benefits she and her patients have received.
