What is an InBody body composition analysis?

FAQ·Advanced Diagnostics & Testing

An InBody body composition analysis is a quick, non-invasive measurement that uses bioelectrical impedance to give detailed estimates of your muscle mass, body fat percentage, and water balance. At WellNest in Cape Town, it produces a clear, repeatable snapshot of your composition in minutes.

The report goes beyond what a bathroom scale can tell you. It breaks your composition down by segment, covering arms, legs, and trunk, so you can see where muscle and fat sit rather than relying on weight alone.

Many people use it to set a baseline, then track changes over time as they adjust nutrition and training. For guidance on what your results may mean for your goals, book a consult with a WellNest clinician.
