Osteoporosis is a chronic condition primarily affecting postmenopausal women, significantly impacting their well-being and quality of life. Traditional treatment approaches include medications, vitamins, and exercise, but there is a growing interest in alternative therapies that enhance bone health. This review was conducted by searching multiple databases, including PubMed, Medline, and Google Scholar, for studies related to osteoporosis treatment. Articles focusing on both traditional therapies such as bisphosphonates, calcium, and vitamin D supplementation, and newer advancements like vibration therapy and bone-building devices such as Osteoboost were included. Traditional treatments, such as vitamin supplementation, exercise, and bisphosphonates, remain foundational in osteoporosis management, helping to maintain bone density and reduce fracture risks. Recent developments, including vibration therapy and Osteoboost, show promising results in bone regeneration without the use of medication. While traditional therapies continue to play an essential role, advancements like vibration therapy present novel alternatives for managing osteoporosis. Further research is necessary to optimize these approaches, ensuring they maximize benefits while minimizing risks, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
