DEXA Body Scan helps you go BEYOND the scale to understand the true make-up of the number you see. This can help clients create a healthier body-image relationship by understanding how much lean muscle, fat tissue, and bone make up their total body mass and where the highest concentration of body fat lies.
Considered one of the most accurate tests, the DEXA Scan is also helpful when evaluating levels of physical fitness. The scan usually takes 6 to 10 minutes with a very low-powered X-ray. The entire appointment is blocked for 20-minutes, but scan time is usually no higher than 8. DEXA Body Scan can be used safely by clients who have Pacemakers, surgical metals, and other implanted devices. Our Dexa Scan is only available at our Fort Lauderdale Beach Wellness Center.
A Dexa or (DXA) Body Scan can help you analyze your body’s composition, bone density, and so much more. This low-range X-ray exam goes beyond a traditional scale to understand your body’s true make-up.
One of the biggest points of evaluation is visceral fat, which is “hidden fat” that surrounds your vital organs. Too much visceral fat can contribute to secondary illnesses such as cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, and hormonal imbalances.
