Certified Practitioners
Our clinicians are trained/licensed to deliver ONERO™, ensuring safety and effectiveness.
Evidence-based Outcomes
Studies show that with ONERO™, ~86% of participants increase spinal bone density, and ~69% increase hip (femoral) bone density.
Improved Functional Health
Beyond bone density, ONERO™ enhances posture, balance, strength, and reduces fall risk — helping you stay active and independent.
Ongoing supervision, periodic reassessments (e.g., at 12 months) to track bone density, functional improvements, and adjust your program.

Why Andrea endorses Onero:
-
Onero is a scientifically validated exercise program proven to increase bone density and reduce fracture risk, which is particularly vital for clients with osteopenia/osteoporosis.
-
Onero bridges a “clinical gap” - many clients diagnosed with low bone density are told to “be careful”, but have not been given clear instructions on how to do this. Onero provides that clinical gap with a program I trust clinically.
-
To empower people with a diagnosis of low bone density.
-
Research for Onero is solid, backed by strong clinical evidence. It aligns with my values.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is high intensity safe for people with fragile bones?
Yes, when supervised by qualified ONERO™ practitioners, high-intensity resistance and impact training is safe and effective even for people with low bone mass. -
How often?
Usually, there are supervised sessions twice a week, with progress made over time. Some version of home-based or supplemental work is possible. -
How soon will I see changes?
Clinical research suggests measurable improvements in bone density, posture, strength, and fall risk often occur within 9-12+ months of consistent training.
