Why choose in body 970 to have a body composition analysis?

Inbody 970 is the latest technology in body composition analysis. The InBody970 is equipped with state-of-the-art 3MHz technology and a new ergonomic design to better suit patients with different conditions and medical specialities than ever before.

Who is the InBody body composition analyser for?

The InBody body composition analyser can be used on anyone from children from the age of 3 to athletes to morbidly obese (up to 250kg) to the elderly.

Why is the in body 970 more expensive than other composition analysers?

InBody technology is different from that used in other BIA devices: It can directly measure and can measure the body segmentally. Is capable of accurately measuring impedance in the trunk. The InBody 970 uses multiple frequencies for analysis. Does not use empirical estimations in calculating values. InBody can evaluate a wide range of body types, from extremely obese to elderly to athletic.

How long does the InBody test take?

The InBody test takes 90 seconds during the testing phase. The entire process takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

Do I operate it myself

No. Our trained clinician will support you every step of the way.

What do I need to wear?

The InBody should be done in light clothing, ideally gym wear. You will need to remove your shoes and socks before your test

Why do I need to remove my shoes and socks for the test?

You must remove shoes and socks for the InBody 970 test to ensure accurate results. The device uses electrodes that need direct contact with bare feet to send a safe electrical signal through the body. Footwear blocks this signal, leading to incorrect body composition readings.

Does it matter what time of day I come?

In-body tests are recommended to be carried out in the morning. However, if this isn’t possible, you should aim to do the test on an empty stomach (at least 2 hours after a meal). You should also avoid testing immediately after exercising.

How long do the results take to come?

You will receive a printout of the results as soon as the test is over. You can also bring up the results on your phone using the InBody app.

Do I have to book a GP appointment to interpret the results?

Yes. The app will inform you what the results mean. But the GP appointment is for those who would like further interpretation of their results or advice on next steps based on the results.

Do I need to repeat the test?

The test can be repeated every 2-4 weeks to check for changes in body composition as a result of training, rehabilitation, weight loss or other body changes.

Who is not recommended to take the InBody test?

People with artificial electrical implants, such as a defibrillator or pacemaker, are not recommended to take an InBody Test. The electrical currents of the InBody may disrupt the functionality of such devices. Women who are on their menstrual cycle or are pregnant are not recommended to test as they may not obtain accurate results due to subtle changes in their hydration and body water levels.

Advanced Body Composition Scan in Leicester

Unlock Your Health Potential – Advanced Body Composition Scan at The Health Suite Leicester!

A Body Composition Scan is a detailed check-up that tells you about the parts of your body, like how much fat, muscle, and water you have. It uses high-tech methods to give you precise numbers, which help you know more about your health and plan your exercise or diet better. This scan shows you the different parts of your body, so you can see how you’re doing over time and make smart choices about your health.

A Body Composition Scan, also known as Bioimpedance Analysis, is a non-invasive assessment that measures various components of body composition to provide insights into overall health and fitness. Some of these components include:

Body weight
Muscle and fat analysis
Percentage of body fat – subcutaneous and visceral fat
Percentage of muscle mass
BMI
Body water composition
Measurement of phase angle (gives insight into the cellular health and the fluid balance of the body)

The data gained can be used for a variety of situations or reasons. This accurate, reproducible information does not rely on empirical data and therefore, reflects the patient that is measured and the changes that are happening within their body.

These include the following usages:

To evaluate a starting point, set goals and evaluate the effectiveness of treatment and progress during rehabilitation.
Monitor body composition change when implementing training or new nutrition
Visceral Fat Result Sheet can be used to monitor changes in subcutaneous and visceral fat.
It can be used by dialysis patients to monitor their hydration and nutrition status
Monitor injury and post-surgical recovery
In sports and athletes, managing body composition to enhance performance and reduce injury risk
In older adults, screen for muscle mass and imbalance to screen for risk of injury and falls
In rehabilitation, body composition analysis can be used as an easy way to gather precise data on things like muscle mass and nutritional status, helping patients make better treatment decisions at any stage of recovery.

The Health Suite in Leicester offers an Advanced Body Composition Scan as part of our comprehensive wellness services. This scan provides detailed insights into your body’s composition, including measurements of muscle and fat distribution across various regions such as the arms, legs, and torso. It also assesses body fat percentage, visceral and subcutaneous fat levels, and basal metabolic rate (BMR), and compares your biological age to your chronological age.
These metrics are valuable for individuals aiming to monitor their health, manage weight, or enhance fitness levels.

Are you unsure if weight changes reflect fat or muscle?
A body composition scan gives a detailed breakdown of fat versus muscle and water levels — offering more insight than weight or BMI alone.
Have you started a fitness or weight‑loss plan and want precise feedback?
Tracking muscle mass, fat percentage and hydration over time can show real progress and refine your goals.
Do you want to understand your visceral fat and health risks better?
Detailed body scans can help estimate deeper fat levels linked to metabolic and cardiovascular risk.
Are you concerned your current BMI doesn’t reflect health changes?
BMI doesn’t distinguish between fat and muscle — a body composition scan reveals true body makeup.
Do you need personalised nutrition or training guidance?
Accurate composition results help tailor diet and exercise plans to your muscle‑to‑fat balance and hydration.
