  • Osteoboost Health (Bone Health Technologies)

    Participated · Equity · Apr 2026

    Osteoboost Health Inc. develops a wearable Class II prescription device worn around the hips that delivers low-magnitude vibration therapy to the lumbar spine and hips as a non-drug treatment for low bone density and osteopenia, particularly in postmenopausal women. The treatment approach is based on research originally funded by NASA and, in a double-blind trial at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, users who adhered to at least three 30-minute sessions per week for 12 months saw bone density loss reduced by 85% in the spine and 55% in the hips, per the company. The device received a Breakthrough Device designation in 2024 and was later cleared via the FDA De Novo pathway; the company began shipping in May. Since launch it has been prescribed by more than 2,500 physicians, including clinicians at over 30 academic medical centers. The company was also named to TIME’s 2025 list of Best Inventions. Osteoboost plans to use the new financing to scale manufacturing, expand clinical research, and broaden commercialization.

The company operates a virtual-first model offering counseling, health coaching, and psycho-oncology to improve quality of life for people undergoing cancer treatment. Cerula launched in 2024 with three large oncology practices and has reported statistically significant improvements in somatic symptoms, quality of life, anxiety, and depression within three months of care.
