Onero™ Program
The Gold Standard in Osteoporosis Management
Stronger Bones. Greater Confidence. A Healthier You.
Osteoporosis can be a daunting diagnosis, but you don’t have to face it alone. As accredited physiotherapists delivering the Onero™ Program, we offer a scientifically validated, exercise-based approach to improving bone health and reducing fracture risk.
Developed by Dr Belinda Beck and her team at Griffith University, based on the Liftmor trial. The Onero™ Program is a structured, supervised exercise program specifically designed for individuals with low bone density. It’s not just general exercise, it’s a targeted intervention that delivers measurable outcomes.
Bone-Targeted Exercise
Unlike walking, swimming or other general forms of exercise, Onero™ uses high-intensity resistance and impact-loading exercises that are specifically designed to stimulate bone growth. These exercises target the spine, hips and wrists—areas most commonly affected by osteoporotic fractures.
Delivered by Physiotherapists
As trained and accredited physiotherapists, we ensure that every session is tailored to your individual needs and physical capacity. We focus on correct technique, progressive loading, and ongoing assessment to help you build strength, balance and confidence safely.
Supportive and Structured
The Onero™ Program is delivered in a supportive, small-group setting or one-on-one, depending on your preference. You’ll be guided through a consistent routine that evolves with your progress, helping you stay motivated and on track.

Why the Onero™ Program Works
Evidence-Based Results
The Onero™ Program is backed by strong clinical evidence, including the landmark LIFTMOR trial, which demonstrated:
A 3.2% increase in spinal bone density
A 2.2% increase in hip bone density
No reported injuries when performed under professional supervision
These results confirm the program’s safety and effectiveness in improving bone strength and reducing the risk of falls and fractures.
Why ONERO™ Must Be Supervised: A Safety & Licensing Reminder
At our clinic, we are proud to offer the ONERO™ program, a scientifically backed, high-intensity resistance training program designed to build bone safely and effectively for people at risk of osteoporosis and fracture.
However, it's important for all clients to understand: We Cannot Teach You ONERO™ for Home or Gym Use
As licensed ONERO™ providers, we are legally and ethically obligated to deliver the program only under professional supervision. This is not just about protecting the ONERO™ intellectual property, it’s about protecting you.
ONERO™ is not safe or effective when done alone or under the guidance of someone who is not trained in the program. Even if you feel confident, the risk of injury, especially fracture, is significantly higher without proper supervision. After a first fracture, your risk of another increases fourfold.
If You’re Unable to Attend Supervised Sessions
We understand that cost or scheduling can be barriers. In these cases, we may be able to offer a generic, lower-intensity resistance program that is safer to do independently. However, please note:
It will not grow bone like ONERO™.
We cannot guarantee safety if your bone mass is very low.
We will not modify ONERO™ for unsupervised use.
Take Control of Your Bone Health
Whether you’ve been diagnosed with osteoporosis or osteopenia, or you’re looking to prevent bone loss, the Onero™ Program offers a safe, effective and empowering path forward.
