My main reason for booking a scan was to see what my bone health was like as I approach menopause, to help me be proactive and protect my longevity. The scan was so simple and quick and more importantly accessible outside of the NHS. I have no hesitation in recommending this company to take the guess work out of our health.
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Adam is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain each part of the process clearly. The mobile unit is very well equipped, creating a professional, clinic-like environment.
I had a DEXA scan and RMR test, and it was really easy to find and book a suitable appointment. The mobile clinic is fantastic!
Adam explained everything in detail of what to expect start to finish and from the results. The level of customer service given was outstanding.
Two tests. Total clarity.
A DEXA scan shows you exactly what your body is made of: fat, muscle and bone, region by region. An RMR test measures how your body fuels: the calories you actually burn at rest.
Together they give you the complete picture of your body and what it needs, which is why most clients book the DEXA + RMR bundle and have both in a single visit.
Pilates by Physio is built on understanding how your body moves. On testing days, our fully equipped mobile clinic parks in the studio car park behind the building, and extends that understanding to what your body is made of and how it runs.
- Clinical-grade DEXA scanning on your doorstep
- RMR metabolic testing, on its own or bundled with DEXA
- Full digital report within 2 working days
- Expert guidance, not just numbers
DEXA: see exactly what you are made of
Is your body built to last? One seven-minute scan gives you the answer in data.
DEXA is the gold standard in body composition. It measures your body fat, lean muscle and bone density region by region, including the visceral fat around your organs that no mirror can show you: the foundations of a body that lasts.
Whether you are protecting your long-term health, losing weight or building muscle, your scan shows precisely what is changing and where.
RMR: measure how your body fuels
Calorie calculators are estimates, and they can be wrong by 200 to 500 calories a day: the difference between making progress and getting nowhere.
An RMR test measures and analyses the oxygen your body consumes at complete rest, using indirect calorimetry to calculate exactly how many calories you burn. How you fuel, combined with how you train, determines if and how your body changes over the long term.
Your results include your own personalised calorie calculator, built on your measured metabolism rather than a formula, deepening your understanding of how your body fuels itself and what it actually needs.
Your results, explained
Data is only useful if you know what to do with it.
That is why we take the time to understand you and your journey, so your results are read against where you want to get to: building a body for life, improving performance, or changing your body composition. We help you use the data to get the change you want.
Within 2 working days of your test you receive a full digital report. Your baseline is benchmarked against your peers, matched for age, gender and ethnicity, so you know exactly where you stand today.
Each time you retest, you see your own personal trend alongside the average trend of your peers, so you can see whether your efforts are moving you in the right direction.
Why test at Pilates by Physio?
Clinical-Grade Accuracy
The same clinical-grade DEXA scanner used at every TELOMYX venue.
Genuinely Local
Heswall testing days mean clinical-grade insight without travelling to a hospital or university lab.
Actionable Results
A full digital report within 2 working days, with guidance you can act on immediately.
Your visit, step by step
On the day, our mobile clinic is parked in the studio car park behind Pilates by Physio. Come to the rear of the studio five minutes before your appointment, enter through the blue rear door, and take a seat in the waiting area. A member of the TELOMYX team will come and greet you.
The DEXA scan itself takes around seven minutes. You lie still, fully clothed, while the scanner passes over you. It is completely painless and uses a very low X-ray dose.
If you are having an RMR test, we will get you settled and comfortable in a fully rested state, then you simply breathe normally through a mouthpiece with a soft nose clip for around 15 minutes while we measure your metabolism.
Frequently asked questions
Have questions? We are here to help.
How do I book?
Book directly through this page. Pick an available date and time at Pilates by Physio and complete checkout. Your confirmation email includes everything you need for the day.
Which tests are available here?
DEXA body composition scans, RMR metabolic testing, and the DEXA + RMR bundle, which covers both in a single visit.
How should I prepare for a DEXA scan?
Avoid eating for 4 hours before your appointment and wear light clothing with no metal such as zips, underwires or buckles. Your confirmation email covers the full preparation steps.
How should I prepare for an RMR test?
Avoid eating for 5 to 6 hours before your RMR test, and skip caffeine and exercise beforehand. Your confirmation email covers the full preparation steps.
Is parking available?
The studio car park is home to the mobile clinic on testing days, so please park nearby. May Road Car Park (opposite Aldi) is a short walk uphill from the studio, or Tesco offers free parking for up to 2 hours, with a convenient walkway from the back of Puddydale leading through to Pensby Road.
How often do testing days run here?
The mobile clinic visits Pilates by Physio regularly throughout the year. Available dates appear when you book, and our mailing list announces new dates first.
Is a DEXA scan safe?
Yes. A DEXA scan uses a very low X-ray dose, a fraction of a standard chest X-ray, and takes around seven minutes.
Are the results the same at every TELOMYX location?
Yes. We use the same clinical-grade DEXA equipment at every venue, so your results are consistent wherever you test.
