"I want to make changes... but I'm not sure where to start"
We hear this all the time from our clients.
You track your calories, you get your steps in and you might even start going to the gym.
But, the months go by, and you have no idea if you're actually making any progress.
You stand on the scales and look at the number in front of you, wondering why it changes every single day.
What's more, the number is mostly meaningless as it provides you with no context.
When you lose weight, you want that weight to be fat.
When you hit the gym to gain weight, you want the weight to be muscle…
But scales can't tell the difference!
If only there were a more scientific way of tracking your body composition…
A medical-grade way so you could be 100% sure you're on the right track with your resolution…
That's exactly what BodyScan solves.
If you're tearing your hair out year after year as you don't see the weight loss you want…
Or if you're spending hours at the gym and have no idea if you're actually putting on muscle…
We have exactly what you've been looking for.
A DEXA scan will reveal your entire body composition in unbelievable detail.
It's the technology used in sports science research labs and the UK's top sports universities, like Loughborough, Bath and Liverpool John Moores.
Precise to a single gram, we can show you exactly how much body fat you have, your muscle mass, how many calories you burn…
Our DEXA scans are so advanced that we even break down your body composition per body part.
Is your fat spread evenly throughout your body or do you have stubborn fat in your belly?
Are all those bench presses really building muscle in your torso? Or is it mainly fat?
A DEXA scan will tell you everything you need to know about your body composition so you can fast-track getting in shape and maximising your fitness.
"That sounds great, but how will I know what the numbers mean?"
Your scales or body composition machine at your gym are great at showing you a number.
But what are you meant to do with it?
Our Baseline scan and consultation session answers this question.
You see, the scan is just the first part of the package.
After it, our DEXA scan consultant will sit with you for 40 minutes and go through your results in fine detail and in plain English.
We completely remove the guesswork for you, answer all your questions and make sure you understand everything.
Using the data from the DEXA scan, we will be able to establish your metabolism with precision.
From that data, we will be able to offer you complete clarity on how to achieve your fitness goals.
Do you want to lose 4kgs over a 3-month time frame?
We'll tell you how many calories you need on a daily basis to reach your target.
If your goal is to build muscle, we'll tell you the size of the calorie surplus you'll need and how long it'll take to get the gains you want.
And if you want to achieve the holy grail of fat loss and muscle gain simultaneously - yes, we can help you with that too.
At BodyScan, our passion is delivering the best results possible to our clients because we know how much health and fitness means to you.

Linda Wei
Had my first ever DEXA scan and consultation with Arthur. Super informative session. Arthur was both friendly and knowledgeable in explaining where I am currently, what my target should be, and how far away I am (and how I might get there over time). Helped me clarify strategy to achieve my fitness goals in terms of both intake and training.

Although eye opening and a bit daunting, seeing the data with your own eyes (rather than just what you see in the mirror) is extremely motivational. We discussed ways for me to improve my results and our plan for the next 6 months. I look forward to my follow up in May and hopefully seeing the benefits from today's session.

I've just had my first scan at Bodyscan, and I have to say I'm more than delighted by the service. The data provided was fascinating, a level of detail beyond what I was expecting and I loved it! Kevin took the time to walk me through it all and made sure I understood it, tailoring the experience to my particular goals. I have zero hesitation to book another scan for a few months time.

I had my first scan and consultation with Arthur this morning. He was super welcoming and immediately made me feel at ease. As an overweight person it's always daunting attending appointments like this and having to face up to uncomfortable truths in order to better yourself. He explained everything in detail and helped me with my goals going forward. I will definitely be booking again to hopefully see massive progress.

The body scan is quick and efficient. Afterward, you'll have the chance to review the data with a consultant. Arthur, the consultant for my session, was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He patiently answered all my questions and was meticulous in analyzing the data breakdown. He explained the report in clear, easy-to-understand terms and offered constructive, inspiring advice. It was a pleasure working with him!

I was curious about what I would learn through a DEXA scan of my body. I booked two scans spaced three-ish months apart. I went on a bit of a fitness journey between them and it was super interesting to see the actual effect on my body of the weight loss. The service was friendly and the explanation of the report was really good too. I'll be booking again soon!

My 3rd Bodyscan visit, impressed they had all my records to hand since it had been 7 years since my last visit! Very pleased I had the scan, good to see what's changed, and what's improved, especially the increase in my bone density, 59 year old female here who's finally started lifting weights consistently! Kevin was very professional and knowledgeable, happy to answer all my questions. Looking forward to my next visit in a years time

Arthur was great and took the time to explain my scan results in the context of my personal goals and in comparison to wider data sets. He also helped me understand the “so-what” of my results, going beyond just the numbers. Definitely coming back. Thanks Arthur!

These are just a few lives that BodyScan has helped change.
In exactly one year, BodyScan customer Idelkys, 40, halved her body fat from 32.7kg to just 16.5kg and reduced her visceral fat by 64%.
"The BodyScan consultation was a really positive experience. It was great to have a visual on my body composition, which gave me the motivation to make a change."
"BodyScan gave great advice regarding calorie intake and a realistic timeline, which helped massively with my biggest challenges of eating healthily and taking things at a steady pace."
Just five months after his first visit to BodyScan, Jinal, 38, had lost over 25kg of body fat and more than halved his visceral fat.
"I knew I was not in a good place but didn't know what that actually meant or how I compared to other men my age."
"BodyScan gave me the kick-start I needed - an accurate, non-judgmental assessment, information and advice to start turning things around, and hard data to keep me on track."
Six months after his first body scan, Nathan, 33, had achieved true body recomposition - fat loss of 3kg and muscle gain of 1.5kg. He went on to gain 10kg of muscle mass.
"Paired with eating more cleanly and adhering to a regular exercise regime, the scans allowed me to check that my weight-loss was mostly fat and helped me set the right calorie intake to maintain enough energy to fuel my training."

Who Is BodyScan For?
BodyScan is perfect for you if you want to know...
Fat Mass
The Baseline DEXA scan consultation tells you how much fat you have now, how much you need to lose, the calories you should consume every day and how long it will take to get there.
Visceral Fat
'Bad' fat around your organs increases your risk of diabetes and other diseases. The DEXA scan assesses your risk and how much fat you need to shift for a longer, healthier life.
Muscle Mass
Building muscle is a very slow process and you probably have less than you think. DEXA will precisely measure your lean body mass and we will advise what you need to do to gain muscle.
What's Included With My Scan?
Our unique reports provide you with a detailed highly accurate analysis of your fat mass, visceral fat, lean muscle, and bone density all explained in an easy to understand way. Providing you a clear path towards your fitness and health goals.
40 Minute Appointment
A DEXA scan looks beyond weight and BMI (even beyond body fat percentage) to show your exact lean mass and fat mass using its low-dose X-ray technology.
Face-to-face Consultation
The face-to-face consultation will clearly explain the results of your scan and personalise the information to help you achieve your own goals more quickly.
Visceral Fat Data
Often forgotten about, visceral fat is the dangerous fat that surrounds your organs and can't be seen by the naked eye. High levels of visceral fat are associated with increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, cancer, even dementia.
Specific Targets For Fat And Muscle
Rather than just talk about weight, we'll focus on a better body composition and give you specific kilogram targets for fat loss and/or muscle gain.
Calorie And Timeline Targets
We'll tell you how many calories you should be eating and how many weeks it will take to reach your goals.
Fat And Muscle Ranking
To put your results into context, we'll compare you to 28,000 male and female scans, the UK's largest DEXA body composition database.
Visualise your body composition and achieve your fitness goals.
Where To Find Us
We have two easily accessible locations in London: one in the city near Bank, and one in Marylebone.
In addition we have locations in Guildford and Southampton.
Frequently asked questions
A DEXA scan is the most accurate method of measuring your body composition. It will provide a reading of your precise fat mass, lean mass and percentage body fat for each area of your body.
It will estimate the amount of visceral fat, which is the fat around your organs associated with heart disease, type-2 diabetes, stroke, some types of cancer and dementia. It will also provide a very good indication of your bone density (DEXA was invented to detect osteoporosis).
There is no need to fast before a DEXA scan. You can eat and drink as usual.
Please remove as much jewellery as you can before you arrive at the clinic.
After you've checked in, empty your bladder before being called. It's best if you're in the same state for every scan for the most reliable comparison.
A DEXA scan is for EVERYONE looking to get in better shape, achieve weight loss, better performance or muscle gain. A lot of people think our customers are athletes, but that's far from the truth! In fact, most of our customers are overweight and are looking to lose fat.
60% of our clients are men, 40% are women and they range from 18-80 years old. Whatever your circumstances and reasons for wanting to know or track your body composition (fat loss or muscle gain), rest assured you'll feel completely comfortable and our consultants are completely supportive and non-judgemental.
The minimum age we can scan is 18 years old. Please bring photo ID if you look younger!
Our DEXA scanner has a maximum weight limit of 204kg (450 pounds or 32 stone). If you're heavier and larger than this, your body may not fit within the width of the scanning table. This is no problem. The DEXA software accounts for this and enables us to mirror the data from your right side to your left side.
If you're very tall (more than 195cm, 6'4"), we will position you with your head outside the scanning area and your feet inside (imagine being in a bed with a footboard but no headboard). When it comes to body composition, we're not really interested in your head anyway!
A DEXA scan uses a tiny dose of ionising radiation (X-rays) to measure your body composition. To put the dose and risk into perspective, it's equivalent to eating 50 grams of Brazil nuts, and less than one day's normal background radiation that we receive every day from outer space and the Earth's natural radiation.
You're effectively having a DEXA scan every day without knowing it! The dose is so low that the Care Quality Commission describes the risk from radiation of a DEXA scan as "negligible".
You should wear loose-fitting clothing without any metal as it will show up on the scan.
Of course! We have a Baseline scan for two people which saves money compared to two single scans. Claim the 20% voucher and there'll be a button on the following page to add an additional person.
If you'd like to bring a friend simply for support or as a chaperone, that's fine too. Your friend can be with you during the introduction and consultation parts of the appointment (before and after the scan) but only a chaperone may be in the room during the 4-minute scan.
