About this test

A biometric analysis gives a breakdown of many components in the body, including muscle and bone mass, visceral fat levels and more. It also shows metabolic age, BMI and BMR.

If you're curious about your overall health and fitness status, a Body Composition Scan offers a non-invasive method to gain valuable insights into your body. By analysing the various components that constitute our bodies, this scan provides a deeper understanding of how these measurements relate to our health and well-being, empowering us to make informed decisions about our lifestyle and fitness goals.

Our private Body Composition Scan is a quick, easy and accurate way to measure your body's visceral fat, muscle, bone mass, hydration and more. The scan is included as part of our full body health check packages.

What Is A Body Composition Scan?

A Body Composition Scan serves as an invaluable tool, offering insights into the composition of our bodies. Beyond merely identifying fat, muscle, bone, and other essential components, this scan delves deeper into understanding the percentages of each element, which significantly influence our overall health and well-being.

A Body Composition Scan provides a comprehensive breakdown of fat, bone, muscle, and water content within the body, offering valuable insights into key health indicators. By revealing metrics like visceral fat accumulation, which poses risks for conditions such as diabetes and heart disease, this test enables proactive health management.

With these valuable insights, individuals can implement targeted lifestyle adjustments to rebalance their body composition, fostering improved health and fitness outcomes.

What are the Benefits of a Body Composition Scan?

A Body Composition Scan offers numerous benefits, providing a detailed and accurate assessment of how our bodies are composed. Unlike traditional weight measurements, which may not reflect the true distribution of fat and muscle, this scan offers a comprehensive view of various body components, including muscle mass, fat percentage, and more.

By gaining insight into these percentages, individuals can obtain a more precise evaluation of their health and fitness status, enabling them to make informed decisions about their lifestyle, nutrition, and exercise regimen.

A Body Composition Scan can be beneficial for:

  • Monitoring muscle mass and fat percentages for athletes in training
  • Fat percentage analysis for individuals on a weight loss journey
  • Measuring amounts of visceral fat around organs which could increase the risk of certain health conditions such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and some cancers
  • Calculating BMI (body mass index) to determine if you're a healthy weight for your height
  • Estimating BMR (basal metabolic rate), the amount of calories your body needs to function at rest
  • Evaluating body water composition and the fluid balance of the body
  • Measuring hydration status
  • For older adults, assessing any changes in muscle mass
  • Estimating bone mineral mass
  • Calculating your metabolic age
