Our DEXA Scans

No special preparation is needed. You can eat, drink, and take medications normally before your scan. DEXA technology is resilient and not affected by recent meals or hydration the way some other body composition methods are. Just avoid clothing with metal zippers or buttons — athletic wear works great.

A DEXA (or DXA) scan is a non-invasive test that measures body fat, muscle mass, and body composition using low-dose x-ray technology. It provides highly accurate and detailed information about your body composition in one convenient session.

The scan typically takes about 15 minutes. You'll receive a detailed breakdown of your body composition measurements.

Please visit our booking page for up-to-date pricing. Our DEXA scans are affordably priced and often less expensive than insurance copays or deductibles.

Yes, the DEXA scan uses an extremely low dose of x-ray radiation, comparable to the amount you'd receive from eating 3 bananas. It's considered very safe for most individuals.

For body composition tracking, many clients scan every month to monitor changes from fitness and nutrition programs. Follow-up scans can be done as often as you like to track progress.

DEXA is the gold standard for body composition testing. It provides significantly more accurate results than bathroom scales, calipers, or bioimpedance devices, measuring regional and total body fat and muscle mass with precision.

Yes! Our scans measure visceral fat, the dangerous fat that surrounds your internal organs and is linked to metabolic diseases, heart disease, and other health problems.

Yes. DEXA accuracy depends on proper calibration and a stable scanning environment. Our scanners are fixed-site, professional-grade systems — not mobile units transported in vans. A stable, properly calibrated machine means more reliable results, especially if you're tracking changes over time.

The Total Body scan measures body fat percentage, lean muscle mass by region, visceral fat, resting metabolic rate, muscle symmetry, and more. You get a 10+ page report with detailed breakdowns.

The Axial Scan gives you a detailed report with standardized scores for key areas. Results in about 15 minutes.

Each scan takes about 15 minutes. You'll receive your detailed report covering all metrics.
