Body Composition Scan

a healthy balance of muscle & fat

A body composition scan gives insight into a person's overall health and fitness by focusing on the balance between fat and muscle. There are multiple methods used for body composition scans. At our Scottsdale, Arizona facility, we use a 2D state of the art Hologic Dimensions Body Composition machine that is the gold standard on the market.

This body composition scan provides you with:

body fat percentage
total lean mass
visceral fat assessment
limb comparison for muscle imbalance detection.

This information is critical for accurately assessing the state of a patient's health and defining successful training programs.
