DEXA Body Composition Scanning at Physical Fitness, Altrincham
Physical Fitness, Altrincham
Precision health testing from TELOMYX, now at Physical Fitness in Altrincham. A DEXA scan gives you clinical-grade data on your body composition, bone density and visceral fat, so you can train, recover and fuel with real numbers instead of guesswork.
It is especially valuable through midlife and beyond, when bone and muscle both start to shift. A DEXA scan flags low bone density early, well before a fracture, and shows whether you are holding on to the muscle that keeps you strong and independent.
Please note: due to the space our mobile clinic needs, testing takes place at a location very close to Physical Fitness, not inside the studio. Full location and arrival details are emailed to you with your booking confirmation.

How do I book?
Book directly through our website. Choose Physical Fitness as your location, select your test, and complete checkout. You will receive a confirmation email with full instructions.
Do I need a referral for a DEXA scan?
You do not need a GP appointment. A DEXA scan involves a small dose of radiation, so it requires a referral, which TELOMYX arranges in-house at no extra cost as part of your booking.
How long does the appointment take?
Your appointment is 30 minutes. The DEXA scan itself takes around 7 minutes. The rest is a short consultation where we discuss your goals and how to get the most from your scan to protect your health and longevity.
When will I know exactly where to go on the day?
Your scan takes place at a location very close to Physical Fitness in Altrincham, as our mobile clinic needs dedicated space and cannot be set up inside the studio. After booking, your confirmation email includes the exact testing address, arrival instructions and parking details.

Yes. We use the same hospital-grade DEXA equipment at every location, so your results are consistent and comparable over time.
