The Benefits of Body Composition Scans

Understanding your body's composition is a crucial element in achieving your health and fitness goals. A Body Composition Scan provides detailed insights into the distribution of fat, muscle, and bone in your body, helping you tailor your fitness and nutrition plans for optimal results.
At Key to Life Health and Fitness, we offer state-of-the-art body composition scanning using the X-scan Plus 950.
What is Body Composition Scanning?
Body composition scanning is a method used to measure the various components that make up your body, including:
- Fat Mass: The total amount of fat tissue.
- Lean Mass: The total amount of muscle tissue.
- Bone Density: The strength and density of your bones.
Scanning is completed by sending a safe, low‑level bioelectrical current through the body.
The current moves differently through muscle, fat and water, allowing the scanner to calculate each component accurately.
These measurements provide a comprehensive picture of your overall body composition and is presented in a detailed report.
A Body Composition appointment takes around 20 minutes to complete
