Discover the Data That Drives Better Health Near Nanaimo

Looking for a full body scan near Nanaimo that offers precise, in-depth insights into your health? Bodycomp Imaging brings quality diagnostics to Vancouver. Whether you’re an athlete, health enthusiast, or someone focused on longevity and wellness, our scans offer the clarity you need to make smarter decisions.

While our clinics are based in Vancouver & Richmond, we proudly serve clients from Nanaimo and across Vancouver Island, offering fast, accurate, and pain-free DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) body composition scans trusted by health professionals throughout British Columbia.

What Is a Full Body Scan?

Unlike vague metrics from scales or fitness apps, a DEXA full body scan offers a medical-grade, highly detailed view of your body. In just minutes, it analyzes:

  • Total and regional fat mass
  • Lean muscle by region
  • Bone mineral density (BMD)
  • Visceral fat around organs
  • Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)

This is the gold standard in body composition — far more precise than smart scales or handheld sensors.

Shaun Golemba

I was super impressed with this service. I was in Vancouver for a concert and was able to easily book online. It was an easy commute from Downtown on the SkyTrain with a short walk. I was greeted be the guy at the front desk and instantly was lead into the examination room. The technician was very friendly and knowledgeable. He answered all my questions and showed me how to download the report. He recommended a follow up appointment in six months, which is what I was planning for myself. As luck would have it, I’m back in Vancouver for ...

As someone who’s needed help with getting their weight loss journey back on track, I had this place recommended by a friend and I’m so glad I did. I worked with Harmun to conduct the scan, and I found the process (along with the results) to be a really fantastic experience! It feels like unlocking a fitness cheat code to have this knowledge, and I highly recommend it to anyone who’s serious about getting their health in order!!
