Body composition measurement

Body composition measurement gives information about your current body composition. The measurement measures weight, visceral fat, fat mass, muscle mass and water, among other things. In addition, information is obtained about the muscle balance between the upper body and the lower body, as well as between the right and left sides.

The body composition measurement result can be compared with previous results made with a similar device. In connection with weight loss, it is good to monitor the preservation of muscle mass. Additional motivation for change can be obtained by monitoring the decreasing amount of fat mass. 

As we age, maintaining muscle mass is important, so the meter can help in monitoring. Visceral fat is fat accumulated around the internal organs, which is behind many of our national diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and diseases of the heart and circulatory system.

The price is €22, including the interpretation of the measurement. The measurement is free of charge for exercise counseling customers.
