Almost everyone knows the number on their scale. It’s the first thing we check when we start eating better or exercising more. But that number doesn’t always tell the truth. Two people can weigh the same and still have completely different levels of health.
At Nour Clinic, the InBody Scan helps you understand what your body weight is really made of. It breaks it down into fat, muscle, and water, showing you the story behind the number. Whether your goal is to lose weight, gain strength, or simply stay healthy, this test gives you clear, personal data that helps you make smarter choices.
If you’ve ever wondered why your progress doesn’t match what you see on the scale, this is where the answer begins.
What Is an InBody Scan?
An InBody Scan is a quick, non-invasive test that measures your body composition in detail. It shows how much of your body is fat, muscle, and water, and even how that balance changes across different areas of your arms, legs, and trunk.
This advanced system uses multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis to read your body at various depths, not just on the surface. It gives you insights into cellular health, inflammation levels, and water distribution between the inside and outside of your cells. These details help identify early signs of fatigue, muscle stress, or poor recovery data that regular scales or smart watches can’t show.
The test takes just two minutes, and your full appointment, including consultation, lasts about 15 to 20 minutes.
Why It Matters
Understanding your body composition gives you control over how your health evolves. You can see where you’re gaining or losing muscle, track fat loss in real time, and even understand how your hydration and metabolism respond to changes in diet or training.
For athletes and fitness enthusiasts, InBody helps detect muscle symmetry, ensuring both sides of the body develop evenly to reduce the risk of injury. For others, it offers a clear baseline for improving metabolism and organ support, something that standard weight checks miss entirely.
The InBody Scan turns numbers into insight, helping you connect how you feel with what’s really happening inside.
How It Works
The device sends a gentle electrical signal through your body at multiple frequencies. Because fat, muscle, and water each conduct these signals differently, the system can calculate their exact ratio.
The InBody Scan doesn’t rely on predictions or population averages. It measures your actual tissue composition using direct segmental measurement, meaning every region of your body is analyzed separately. This precision allows for more tailored fitness and treatment plans.
What You’ll Learn
Your scan results include:
- Body fat percentage and total fat mass
- Skeletal muscle mass
- Lean mass for arms, legs, and trunk
- Total body water and intracellular vs extracellular balance
- Visceral fat level
- Basal metabolic rate (BMR)
- Segmental analysis for muscle symmetry
- Phase angle – an indicator of cellular health and vitality
The phase angle is a new, research-based metric that reflects the strength and integrity of your cell membranes. A higher phase angle is linked with better recovery, stronger immunity, and overall wellness.
If your scan shows dehydration or imbalance, IV Drip Therapy at Nour Clinic can help restore proper hydration and support post-exercise recovery.
Benefits
The InBody Scan is one of the most practical ways to understand your body on a deeper level. The scan itself takes only a couple of minutes, and the entire session, including explanation, takes no more than 20 minutes.
It’s radiation-free, completely painless, and safe for all healthy adults. It helps track progress between treatments, monitor fluid balance, and adjust your nutrition and fitness plan with precision.
It’s also a valuable assessment before or after treatments such as Body Contouring, EMS Training, or Mesotherapy for Slimming, ensuring every session is guided by real data.
Who It’s For
This scan is ideal for anyone who wants to understand their body better whether you’re on a weight loss journey, training to build muscle, or simply maintaining overall wellness.
It’s perfect for athletes, personal trainers, and anyone working with a nutritionist or physiotherapist who needs precise data to guide their programs.
It is not suitable for individuals with pacemakers or implanted medical devices, during pregnancy, or for those unable to stand unassisted for about a minute.
What to Expect
When you arrive, our specialist will review your goals and explain how to prepare for the scan. For consistency, it’s best to avoid caffeine, alcohol, large meals, and strenuous exercise for a few hours beforehand.
You’ll remove your shoes and jewelry, step onto the device, and hold the handles. The test is completely painless and takes about one to two minutes. Your results are printed immediately and explained in detail so you leave with a clear understanding of your body composition.
The entire appointment, from arrival to completion, takes about 15 to 20 minutes.
