Beyond the Scale: What an InBody Scan Can Tell You About Your Health

Your weight is only one piece of the picture. Learn how an InBody scan measures muscle, body fat, visceral fat, and more—and why tracking body composition can be useful.

Two people can weigh exactly the same and have very different body composition.

That’s why we use InBody body composition scans at Direct Primary Care of West Michigan.

An InBody scan gives you a closer look at things like:

• Skeletal muscle mass
• Body fat percentage
• Visceral fat
• How muscle is distributed throughout your body
• Changes in body composition over time

I especially like this information for people who are working on improving their metabolic health, building or maintaining muscle, losing body fat, or simply trying to understand what’s happening in their body beyond a number on the scale.

And you do not have to be a DPC member to get one.

Want to Know What’s Beyond the Number on the Scale?

InBody scans are available at Direct Primary Care of West Michigan for both members and nonmembers.

Whether you’re working on building muscle, reducing body fat, improving your metabolic health, or simply want a better baseline, an InBody scan can give you another useful piece of information to help you understand your body.

You do not need to be a DPC member to schedule a scan.
