Abstract: Osteoporosis is more than a disease of bone that can be described in terms of changes in bone structure and density.The physical manifestation of pathology reflects changes in the way the non-physical human bodies function together. Insight into changes in the activity of the etheric, astral and I organization characterizes a more comprehensive perception of the disease, which affects a considerable part of the population, and leads to measures relating to lifestyle as well as therapeutic approaches.
