About

DEXA SF is a specialist body composition scanning studio located inside the Custom Fit gym at 323 Octavia Street in San Francisco's Hayes Valley neighbourhood. The clinic uses dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry — the same imaging modality used in clinical and research settings — to provide highly accurate measurements of body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, bone mineral density, visceral fat, and regional body composition across the arms, legs, and trunk. Every scan appointment includes a consultation with a credentialed technician, either a Registered Dietitian or Exercise Physiologist, who walks clients through their results and translates the data into actionable fitness and nutrition guidance. DEXA SF also offers resting metabolic rate testing, enabling clients to understand their caloric baseline and optimise energy intake. The clinic serves athletes, fitness enthusiasts, people pursuing weight management, and anyone seeking an evidence-based baseline for tracking body composition change over time. Its four-stage approach — Educate, Analyse, Train, Retest — emphasises repeated measurement and progress tracking rather than one-off testing.

DEXA Body Composition Scan

DEXA SF uses dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to measure body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, bone mineral density, and visceral fat with clinical-grade precision. Each 6-minute scan generates a full regional breakdown across the arms, legs, and trunk, and includes a consultation with a credentialed technician who interprets the results and links them to training and nutrition goals. The low-radiation exposure — roughly equivalent to half a day of natural background radiation — makes regular retesting practical for ongoing body composition tracking.

Resting Metabolic Rate Test

DEXA SF offers resting metabolic rate (RMR) measurement to determine the number of calories the body burns at rest. The test uses indirect calorimetry — analysing oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production through a short breathing protocol — to generate an accurate, personalised caloric baseline. This data is used to calibrate caloric intake targets for fat loss, muscle gain, or weight maintenance, and may complement a DEXA body composition scan to build a complete metabolic picture.
