Why DXA ?

DXA body composition scans stand out from other body fat tests for a number of reasons: safe, convenient, less invasive, accurate, provides usable information, affordable and the ability to monitor total or regional lean muscle mass, fat and bone in your body are all reasons to choose DXA. Gone are the days of intrusive skinfold caliper testing, submerging yourself in water for hydrostatic weighing or settling for less accurate bioelectrical impedance testing. Choose DXA and save time and money without the hassle.

  • Convenient


    With our mobile setting, we come to you and each scan is completed in 8-10 minutes followed by your Wellness Consultation

Hydrostatic

Hydrostatic weighing (also known as underwater weighing) involves submerging yourself in a pool and being weighed on a special scale. Once in the pool, you exhale all your air, completely submerge yourself in the water, and let the scale record your weight. Your underwater weight is compared with what you weigh on land, and these numbers, together with the value of the density of the water in the pool, are put through a series of calculations. This test is less convenient than other methods and just like calipers, these calculations only produce your body fat percentage.

ACCURACY COMPARISON

Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA)

DXA is a medical test that involves lying on a table while a machine sends small amounts X-rays through your body and measures the difference in the amount of energy initially sent through the body and the amount detected after it exits the body. Although DXA was originally designed to measure bone density, Developed for professional athletes it is now considered the “Gold Standard” for measuring body composition.  It can produce results such as body fat percentage and soft lean mass as well. Unlike calipers and underwater weighing, DXA scans are able to measure the body segmentally, scanning each arm and the trunk separately in order to accurately measure body fat percentage, soft lean mass, and other body composition elements. DXA is highly accurate from scan to scan so tracking your success is easy!

Bioelectrical Impedance

Bioelectric Impedance Analysis (BIA) is a simple method of measuring muscle and body fat using electrical current. By sending an electrical current through a persons body the resistance can be measured and then mathematical algorithms are used to calculate the amount of muscle vs. body fat. Bioelectric Impedance Analysis is the system that your bathroom scale uses to calculate your body fat percentage. This method of measurement depends on the conditions being ideal to generate the best results.
