Book Appointment

Understand your fat, muscle, bone, and progress with advanced body composition scanning.

Stop guessing. Start knowing.

Scale weight and BMI only tell a fraction of the story. A 10-minute DEXA scan at DEXA Lab Philly reveals what your body is actually made of—providing precise, clinical-grade data you can actually use.

What We Measure:

  • Body Fat Percentage & Distribution (know exactly where you store fat)
  • Lean Muscle Mass & Asymmetries (track gains and balance left vs. right)
  • Visceral Fat (the critical hidden fat around your organs linked to longevity)
  • Bone Mineral Density (essential for lifelong skeletal health)

We don’t just hand you a PDF and send you on your way. We walk you through your scan line-by-line, giving you clear insights to optimize your training, nutrition, and health strategy.

Whether you’re optimizing athletic performance, rebuilding muscle, or taking control of your metabolic health—your baseline starts here.

What Does a DEXA Scan Measure?

A standard scale only shows total body weight. It cannot tell you how much of that weight is fat, muscle, or bone.

A DEXA scan provides a complete view of your body by measuring key markers such as:

  • Body fat percentage
  • Total fat mass
  • Lean muscle mass
  • Visceral fat
  • Bone mineral content and density
  • Regional body composition
  • Fat and muscle distribution across different areas of the body

If you lose two pounds of fat and gain two pounds of muscle, a standard scale tells you nothing changed. A DEXA scan shows you the exact shift—proving your hard work is paying off even when the scale won’t budge.
