Osteoboost is the first and only FDA-cleared, non-drug prescription treatment for low bone density. Powered by NASA-inspired technology, the wearable belt targets high-risk areas like the lumbar spine and hips, using a proprietary vibration frequency to stimulate bone growth effectively.Osteoboost’s clinical trials show up to 85% reduction in spine bone density loss and 55% reduction in hip bone density loss.We have a conversation with CEO Laura Yecies, who has more than 30 years of experience scaling businesses.
