Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

What is Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis?

Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) is a quick, safe, and painless technology utilized by leading hospital and universities all over the world. BIA measures body composition by sending a safe, low electrical current through the body, with just four small adhesive pads. The current moves easily through the fluids and lean tissue, but encounters resistance when moving through fat tissue. BIA provides a window into subtle changes with your body composition. Keeping track of your weight loss hasn't been easier!

Why weight is not enough

With BIA you will have proof of measurable change with water retention, body mass, and fat tissue.
Let’s take three different patients, each needing to lose 20 pounds.

The first patient has 20 pounds of extra water retention, the second patient has 20 pounds of extra body fat, and the third patient has to lose a combination of 20 pounds of extra water retention and fat.

Knowing the unique differences in body composition helps us customize maximally effective wellness strategies…and change course when we need to

Note: The FDA has not cleared BIA for patients who are pregnant or have an implanted electronic medical device (like a pacemaker)
