Body composition analysis is a necessary process for accurately assessing your body composition. At our clinic, we use a state-of-the-art body composition analyser to ensure accurate, reliable results.
The Tanita MC-780 P multi-frequency total- and segmental-body composition analyser is one of the leading high-precision analysers.
A complete body composition analysis is performed in less than 30 seconds using the bioelectrical impedance method for each body segment, with 3 different frequencies.
The measurement can be performed across all age groups and is a vital tool for formulating and adopting a balanced nutrition program.
