1. Turn on Osteoboost (before putting it on)
Firmly tap the power button once and let go. After about a second, the lights will illuminate to confirm that it’s on.
Note: the button does not “click.” Watch the lights if you are unsure if the device is on.
If you have downloaded the app to your Apple iPhone or iPad, pair it to Osteoboost now.

2. Put on the device
Osteoboost works by targeting precision vibration therapy to the hips and spine. Placement and tightness are important!
Wrap Osteoboost around your hips (not your waist). The vibration pack/foam pad should sit on your sacrum, with the power button facing up. The sacrum is the flat bone just above the tailbone (and the derriere).
Secure around your hips with the magnetic clasp. Once the two clasp ends overlap, they should automatically click into place.

3. Pull the straps tight
Osteoboost should be tight around your hips, but not uncomfortable.
To tighten the straps, it is easiest to pull on one strap at a time. For the right strap, first grab the belt with your right hand. Then reach across your body with your left hand and pull on the strap. For the left strap, first grab the belt with your left hand. Then reach across your body with your right hand and pull on the strap.
Having trouble? Try our iOS app! It will show you if the straps aren’t tight enough.

4. Stand still for pressure check and calibration
It may take 4-5 seconds for the pressure check to complete. If you hear a double tone, tighten the straps.
Once tight enough, you will feel a vibration pulse that indicates it is starting calibration.
When calibration is complete, Osteoboost will automatically transition to continuous vibration. Your treatment session has started!
Sometimes calibration is brief and you may only feel continuous vibration–this is fine.

Battery level and charging
Learn how to check your battery level and charging status.
To check the battery level or charging status, the device must be turned on. If it’s off, press the power button to turn it on—even if it’s plugged in. The lights will not illuminate unless the device is on.
When the device is on and is not plugged in, the lights indicate the battery level as follows:
When the device is on and plugged in, a flashing white light indicates charging is in progress. All three lights will appear solid when the device is fully charged.
