OsteoStrong is currently facing a number of lawsuits alleging that the company’s bone density improvement machines are ineffective and dangerous.
One lawsuit, filed in California in 2023, alleges that OsteoStrong machines cause injuries, including stress fractures, bone bruises, and muscle tears. The lawsuit also alleges that the company’s machines are not medically necessary and that OsteoStrong misrepresents the benefits of its services.
Another lawsuit, filed in Florida in 2022, alleges that OsteoStrong is a pyramid scheme. The lawsuit alleges that OsteoStrong coaches recruit new customers and earn commissions on their sales. The lawsuit also alleges that OsteoStrong coaches are not required to have any medical training.
OsteopoStrong has denied all of the allegations in the lawsuits. The company has stated that its machines are safe and effective, and that they have been used by millions of people without any serious injuries. OsteoStrong has also stated that it is not a pyramid scheme and that its coaches are required to complete training on the company’s products and services.
The lawsuits against OsteoStrong are still ongoing, and it is unclear how they will be resolved. However, the cases have raised concerns about the safety and efficacy of OsteoStrong’s bone density improvement machines.
If the plaintiffs are successful, it could set a precedent that protects consumers from being injured by OsteoStrong machines. It could also lead to stricter regulation of the bone density improvement industry.
In addition to the lawsuits, OsteoStrong has also been the subject of negative media reports. In 2022, the Wall Street Journal published an article that questioned the efficacy of OsteoStrong machines and the company’s marketing practices.
The negative media coverage has led to some consumers questioning the safety and efficacy of OsteoStrong machines. Some consumers have also reported that they have been pressured by OsteoStrong coaches to purchase expensive memberships.
The lawsuits and negative media coverage have put OsteoStrong under increased scrutiny. It remains to be seen how the company will respond to these challenges.
