This involves the measurement of human body composition. Your body is the result of lifestyle, nutrition, activity levels and your ethnic origins. We offer a system of assessing your body as it is and monitoring changes over time.

We measure skinfolds, girth measurements, bone diameters, and bone lengths. All measurements are based on international standards (ISAK – International Society of Advanced Kinanthropometry). The entire range of measurements are taken once and then repeated. A third measurement is taken if any fall outside a set margin of error.
You gain knowledge on your body fat, lean mass, and somatotype (body type). Monitoring your changes over time will have a higher degree of accuracy due to the methods used ie. any changes are more likely due to actual changes than due to measurement error.
The process usually takes 30-45 mins.
