DXA body composition scans

Our state-of-the-art DXA scanning will show you:

  • overall body fat, muscle and bone values
  • breakdowns of both legs, arms and torso
  • where your body fat and muscle is distributed
  • visceral fat (the dangerous fat around organs).

You can use this information with your personal trainer, nutritionist or dietitian to help:

  • plan your exercise regime
  • work out a weight loss program
  • identify your ideal body weight
  • discuss health risks associated with high/low levels of body fat
  • check for excess accumulation of intra-abdominal fat.

Multiple scans over time can deliver precise trending information so you can map your progress.
