About this treatment
The DEXA Scan uses dual x-ray technology to provide precise measurements of total body fat percentage, segmental body fat distribution (arms, legs, waist, hips), visceral fat, and bone density. It helps individuals track their body composition changes over time, understand their body fat distribution, and monitor the effectiveness of diet and exercise programs. This scan provides valuable information about lean and fat mass, and what each means for your overall wellness. It's useful for anyone wanting to track their fitness journey and proactively pinpoint problems.
