Bio-Impedance Analysis (BIA)

Body composition tests provide valuable health information

About Bio-Impdance Analysis (BIA)

Bio-Impedance Analysis (BIA) is an accurate method of measuring body composition, the term used to describe what the body is made up of. This includes fat, muscle and fluid balance. And while you may be more familiar with the term BMI (Body Mass Index), BIA has been proven to be a far more accurate measurement.



When you’re trying to get healthier, you’re most likely wanting to lose fat and gain muscle. As such, its important for us to be able to accurately differentiate between muscle mass and fat mass.



The Bio-Impedance Analysis does this, making it a far more accurate and beneficial method of body composition measurement. This being the case, we're able to clearly identify your particular needs and offer an effective treatment plan.

What does BIA measure?

BIA measures some of the important biological markers associated with ageing and our general well being, these include the following.

  • Cellular Health Status
  • Body Fat Mass
  • Muscle Mass
  • Toxicity and Fluid Retention Level
  • Biological Age
  • Cellular Vitality
  • Metabolic Rate
  • Hydration Status
  • Daily Kilojoule and Water Requirement

By analysing the biological markers, an accurate status of your health can be recorded, and areas that need attention can be targeted for treatment. This service is ideal for anyone wanting to reduce fat, increase muscle tone & general fitness, detoxify their body, increase energy levels and promote healthy ageing.
