Bone Augmentation
Structural
[ description | comments | game data ]

Calcium treatments are applied directly to the bones to strengthen them. This increases the bones toughness as well as making them somewhat more pliable under extreme stess.

>>>>>[Sprocketface's Dr is right. I also perform this procedure and let me just toss out this warning right here-- Be sure to ask your Dr which method s/he uses. If s/he mentions anything about genetics/gene-mods or the "Taylor-Boz Method" shy away & find someone else. The Taylor-Boz Method involves the administration of a genetic manipulation for "upkeep" reasons (in addition to the usual Ca-treatments). While this SOUNDS like an attractive option, the Taylor-Boz Method has been implicated in the development of symptoms similar to those of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP), in which damaged muscle tissue is converted to bone during its repair.]<<<<<
