The article outlines the modern concept of rehabilitation of patients with osteoporosis (OP), the cornerstone of which is the use of a multidisciplinary approach. This approach involves not only the participation of specialists of various specializations and levels in the process of rehabilitation treatment, but the formation of a new functional unit — a multidisciplinary team, whose members actively interact with each other from the first days to the completion of the rehabilitation course at every stage of the course; they together make a rehabilitation diagnosis based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF); they formulate rehabilitation goals, evaluate rehabilitation potential, discuss and develop a rehabilitation program and evaluate its effectiveness by using modern scales, tests and questionnaires to assess the change in the condition of the patient“s life at all levels and the quality of life in general. Taking into account the principle of multidisciplinarity, approaches to preparation of rehabilitation programs for patients with OP are described using various methods: those of therapeutic gymnastics, mechanotherapy, physiotherapy, balneotherapy, occupational therapy, psychotherapy, drug treatment and orthosis. Particular attention in the process of rehabilitation of patients with OP is given to physical therapy and orthosis, which are aimed at reducing pain, improving coordination, posture, as well as reducing the risk of falls and fractures. The literature review presented in the article allows us to conclude that the use of a multidisciplinary approach in the rehabilitation of patients with OP makes it possible to significantly improve the quality of life of patients even with severe forms of the disease.
