Take Care of Your Bones with Bone Health BC: Mobile Bone Density Scanning

A bone mineral density (BMD) scan is essential at all stages of life and is a valuable tool for assessing bone health and diagnosing conditions such as osteoporosis and low bone density (osteopenia). BoneHealth BC aims to provide accessible and accurate bone health analysis to indicated populations and people at risk throughout our province. To do this, select clinics and medical facilities around the province are offering mobile screening for bone mineral density.


Benefits of a Bone Density Scan Can Include:

• early detection of osteoporosis or osteopenia
• monitoring treatment efficacy
• guidance for lifestyle changes
• early detection of other conditions

Integrative Naturopathic Medical Centre is excited to be partnered with BoneHealth BC as a clinic location offering these services on select dates starting in 2025. No referral is required to book this service. Patients and non-Patients of Integrative can book an appointment using the booking link provided below.

BoneHealth BC provides your report through JaneApp’s secure, confidential transfer portal or via email. Our reports can then be reviewed with your primary care provider, who will develop a bone-health-centered plan. BoneHealth BC cares about your health, so we work hard to develop and maintain a continuity of care model.
