with a DEXA Scan

Stay Strong for Life:
Body Composition Scanner (DEXA)

 

Bone loss is a silent process often showing no symptoms until a fracture occurs. A DEXA scan (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) is the gold-standard test for bone density, providing clear, clinical insight into your fracture risk and overall bone health. Early detection helps you and your doctor take the right steps to stay strong, mobile, and independent for years to come.

Reveal the Full Story of Your Health with DEXA Scanning

 

As we get older, the natural balance between bone growth and bone loss begins to shift, making our bones gradually less dense and more vulnerable to fractures. A DEXA scan offers a clear assessment of bone strength and overall body composition, giving you a detailed picture of how your bones are ageing and helping you take proactive steps to protect your long-term health.

What is a DEXA Scan?

Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is a cutting-edge, non-invasive scan that delivers precise, clinical-grade measurements of your body’s internal composition. Click below to explore what it reveals.

Measures the strength of your bones to help detect early signs of osteoporosis and reduce fracture risk.
Shows your total and regional body fat percentage to support targeted fat loss and metabolic health.
Reveals the amount of lean tissue (muscle) you carry — critical for strength, performance, and injury recovery.
Maps where fat and muscle are distributed across your body, helping personalise training, recovery, or treatment.

How DEXA Supports Your Bone Health

Bone Health

Understand Ageing Bone Changes

  • Bone density naturally declines with age, increasing the risk of thinning bones and fractures.

  • A DEXA scan shows how strong your bones are now, long before problems appear on X-rays or through symptoms.

  • Establish a clear baseline so you and your clinician can monitor changes over time.

Older adults staying active

Personalised Prevention

  • Combine DEXA insights with strength, balance, and weight-bearing exercise tailored to your needs.

  • Lower the risk of falls and fractures while supporting day-to-day mobility and independence.

Health Journey

Support Strength & Balance

  • See how much of your weight comes from muscle, fat, and bone rather than just a number on the scales.
  • Focus on building and preserving muscle to support joints, posture, and everyday strength.
  • Track progress over time so you can stay active, steady on your feet, and confident.
Older Adults

Peace of Mind & Clarity

  • Get precise, clinical-grade data quickly in a comfortable, low-dose scan.
