Why do a DEXA Scan?

A DEXA scan (DXA scan) is a quick, painless, low-level x-ray that measures body composition, body fat percentage, overall skeletal health, total lean mass, visceral fat, limb comparison for imbalance, and more.

DEXA scans are a valuable preventative healthcare service that can help detect chronic disease early. Tall Tree offers these services in conjunction with our Longevity Medicine Program.

This is gold standard, precision testing.
