Body Composition Scan
A Body Composition Scan is a non-invasive assessment that analyzes the different components of your body, including fat mass, muscle mass, water content, and bone density.
Here's how it works:

- Total body fat percentage
- Lean muscle mass
- Body water percentage
- Basal metabolic rate (BMR)
-Benefits: Understanding your body composition can help you:
- Tailor your fitness and nutrition plans more effectively
- Track progress over time
- Set realistic health and fitness goals
Please avoid taking this scan if you are pregnant or have a pacemaker
Why Choose Our Body Composition Scan?
