DEXA Scan

DEXA Scan

The gold standard for body composition analysis.

Take Control of Your Health.

At Vessel, we’re one of the few clinics in Idaho offering advanced DEXA scanning. More than just a scale or body fat test, DEXA provides precise data on muscle mass, body fat, visceral fat, and bone density. These four key markers can uncover hidden health and metabolic issues often missed in traditional check-ups—giving you a clear blueprint to optimize your health, longevity, and performance.

A DEXA scan goes beyond scales and BMI, revealing:

✔ Body Fat Breakdown: Total and regional fat, including visceral adipose tissue (VAT)—the hidden danger around organs.

✔ Lean Mass Insight: Lean muscle is a key predictor of metabolic health and longevity. DEXA shows your exact muscle distribution to guide training, preserve muscle, and support lifelong vitality.

✔ Left vs. Right Balance: DEXA reveals side-to-side muscle imbalances, helping you correct weaknesses, prevent injury, and build a more balanced, resilient body.

✔ Bone Density: A wellness snapshot (not for medical diagnosis).These metrics help you optimize fitness, prevent disease, and track real results

DEXA PRICING:

Body composition: $125

Body composition + bone density: $200

The Hidden Threat of Visceral Fat

Not all fat is created equal. While subcutaneous fat sits just beneath the skin, visceral fat (VAT) is the dangerous type that hides deep inside your abdomen—wrapping around vital organs like your liver, heart, and pancreas. This isn’t just passive storage; it’s an active, toxic fat depot that drives inflammation and disease.

Driving Insulin Resistance

Visceral fat interferes with your body’s ability to use insulin properly, driving insulin resistance and increasing your risk of Type 2 diabetes. Even lean individuals can have hidden VAT levels silently impacting blood sugar control—DEXA reveals this risk early so you can act.

Fueling Heart Disease

Visceral fat releases compounds that raise blood pressure, increase cholesterol buildup, and accelerate plaque in your arteries. This hidden fat is a major driver of heart disease and stroke—DEXA helps you spot it before serious cardiovascular damage occurs.

Triggering Chronic Inflammation

VAT keeps your body in a state of chronic inflammation, linked to cancer, arthritis, dementia, and more. DEXA exposes this invisible threat, giving you the power to reduce it and lower your long-term disease risk.
