Your weight is only part of your picture. In under 1 minute, a body composition scan reveals what the scales cannot – giving you and your doctor a more complete measure of your health. Our medical-grade Tanita MC-580 multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis device is a segmental body composition analyser that provides accurate and comprehensive measurements.

It's non-invasive, quick, painless, and informative — and can add depth to how we manage your health.
