Laser therapy and physiotherapy for bone health in menopause
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests whether a combination of high-intensity laser therapy and physiotherapy can improve bone health in postmenopausal women with low bone density. It may offer a drug-free option to strengthen bones.
