Want to understand your body composition on a deeper level?
The Seca mBCA (Medical Body Composition Analyzer) offers far more than a traditional weight scale. While a standard scale only gives you total body weight, the Seca mBCA uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to provide a precise, detailed breakdown of your body’s composition. In mere seconds, this medically validated body composition scan measures crucial components like fat mass, muscle mass, and water content (including extracellular and intracellular water).
This comprehensive data gives you a much deeper understanding of your health and progress, especially as you make lifestyle changes. It helps you accurately see how your body responds to nutrition and exercise, ensuring that weight loss truly comes from fat and that you maintain or build muscle mass. A body composition scan with our Seca mBCA empowers you to make informed decisions for your health and wellness journey, making it an invaluable tool for personalized coaching and tracking.
Benefits of Seca Body Scanning:
Comprehensive Body Composition Analysis: This goes beyond weight and BMI to provide a much clearer picture of your health status.
Accurate and Medically Validated: Seca devices undergo rigorous validation studies, often compared to “gold standard” methods like MRI, ensuring high accuracy and reliability.
Tracks your Progress Over Time: Regular scans allow you to monitor changes in your body composition in response to diet, exercise, or medical interventions. This can be highly motivating.
Personalized Insights: Helps tailor fitness and nutrition plans to your specific body composition needs and goals.
Identifies Potential Health Risks: High visceral fat or imbalances in muscle mass and hydration can be early indicators of potential health issues.
Supports Weight Management: Helps differentiate between fat loss and muscle loss during weight changes, ensuring healthy and sustainable weight management.
Useful for Various Applications: Beneficial for individuals focused on weight loss, muscle gain, athletic performance, overall wellness, and managing certain medical conditions.
Quick and Non-Invasive: The scan is typically fast (around 20-30 seconds) and requires no special preparation other than being normally hydrated and avoiding heavy meals or intense exercise a couple of hours beforehand.
