Body Composition Australia is the fast, safe, comfortable way to assess what's “going on” on the inside.  Our staff are accredited exercise physiologists dedicated to delivering individual health assessments and customised advice.

Body Composition Australia uses the worlds most advanced scanning technology from Hologic, USA.  Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), assesses total body bone mineral density and highly accurate measures of the body’s soft tissue composition (muscle mass and fat mass).  By measuring your body’s muscle mass, fat mass, and bone mineral density, Body Composition Australia can determine your total body fat percentage, and changes in regional body composition. We also undertake specific measures to determine your risk of Type 2 Diabetes and heart disease. 

We then use these results to provide specific quantitative information on your ideal caloric intake and energy expenditure, helping you achieve your health and weight loss goals and improved total body health.

From every total body DEXA scan you get the following information:
Total body bone mineral density
Total body muscle mass (kg)
Total body fat mass (kg)
Total body fat percentage
Muscle and fat mass of the trunk and each of your arms and legs
Central abdominal fat measurement
Accuracy to one tenth of a gram
