A new FDA-approved device called Osteoboost uses vibrations to potentially improve bone health, particularly for those with osteopenia (low bone density). This belt can be worn while walking and delivers low-magnitude vibrations that stimulate bone-building cells. Though promising results in a trial exist, more research is needed to understand its overall effectiveness in preventing fractures. Consult your doctor before using any device, especially if you have certain conditions.
