A DEXA Scan gives you more than numbers – it gives you clarity. For health-conscious adults, especially women in their 30s-50s, bone density and body composition are critical for proactive health management.

A DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan is one of the most accurate ways to understand what your body is truly made of. It goes beyond what a scale or mirror can show.
In a fast, non-invasive session, DEXA uses two low-level X-ray beams to measure bone density, lean muscle mass, and body fat distribution. This technology provides a clear, detailed picture of your body’s composition, including how different regions-like your arms, legs, and torso are performing.
Your DEXA results are more than data. They offer insight into how your body is holding up over time and where support is needed.
By measuring bone density, we can help you catch early signs of osteopenia or osteoporosis. By tracking muscle-to-fat ratios, we can better understand your metabolic health, hormone balance, and risk of injury.
At Permanence Health, this scan serves as the starting point for a strategy that supports your long-term strength, clarity, and energy. It informs your training, your nutrition, and your next steps. This is where sustainable progress begins.
A DEXA Scan is quick, painless, and non-invasive. You’ll lie comfortably while the scanner passes over your body – the entire process takes about 10 minutes. Afterward, we’ll review your results together and translate the data into actionable steps.
